I was attacked by a cat 10 weeks ago. I had surgery to reattach the tendon in my finger. I had infection for almost 6 weeks and had to have some tendon removed because the infection was making it fray. I had to have it drained a second time. Now the infection seems to be gone but I am having a terrible issue with swelling and getting the use of my hand back. It has a glistening look to it and the skin is very tight from the swelling. I am in physio but finding it difficult. Is there possibly something being overlooked? I was also told that I have nerve damage in my hand and wrist.
