If I could write poetry I would write "Ode to Hydrogen Peroxide". Peroxide doesn't hurt too much when you put it on a cut, it's fun (in a perverse way) to watch peroxide bubble and the best part is Peroxide speeds up the healing time. My finger still has a way to go before it's back to normal but it's looking better. I'm looking forward to the day when I can use my ring finger to type "s", "w" and "x" again --- for now my pinky finger is doing double duty.
