Been there, done that (although my pain was carpal tunnel).

Mice are evil.

I learned to alternate the mouse from left to right of the keyboard each day. This helped.

You're not being a wus by getting this checked. Cuts and bruises are one thing, but this is in another league. Keep us posted, there're plenty of us following this.

Oh yeah, NZers are traditionally tough about injuries. One NZ mate of mine asked my advice about an injury he'd picked up crashing his bike in traffic, sliding sideways and planting his lower leg onto the tip of a car's exhaust pipe. "Should I leave it uncovered, or put some band-aids over it?". It was a carved out gash 3 or 4 cm long, and 5-6mm wide and the same depth. He had ridden home. We got him to go to the hospital and they were able to stitch it, although for a while they were considering skin grafts. Bloody band-aids, .

New Zealanders: like Australians, only more so.
