Self care is important. When most of the things that you do are with your hands, you need to take care of them.
I have been having hand pain for over a month that has been getting more and more severe each day that I try and work. I knew that I needed to finish out the semester so I held out but unfortunately today I could no longer do that. I tried to push myself out of bed to meet excruciating pain from my wrist.
I went to the walk-in and got an x-ray which, thank god, was fine. However I've been told that it's a sprain and that I need to rest my hand in a splint.
I can't live without my hands and my worst fear is losing control of them. Therefore, I am taking this week off completely. No drawing. No renders. No typing after this sends out.
But don't worry, this is only a pause. Again, stronger, and soon enough, I will press play.
