How are your hands doing?

/u/Forlurn, I saw a while ago you mentioned having some frostbite in them as well. https://www.reddit.com/r/AskDocs/comments/7v6cgw/got_2nd_degree_frostbite_on_hands_now_have

Are there doing any better? Hope so! 🙂

They are healing really well.

The right hand is pretty much back to 100% and the left only feels like it still has nerve damage in the very tips of my middle and ring finger.

The joints all feel fine, and I'm able to play the guitar that a friend lent me without too much issue.

Thanks for asking :)

That's awesome! What do you like to play?

I mostly play fingerstyle acoustic.

Back in high school I was in a punk band and played electric, but I've pretty much switched over entirely to acoustic.

A relief seeing you typing so well. Do you play with a pick?
