Nana na na WIPE OUT!
So last night I had an excellent wipe-out on the trampoline at the Cambridge Kips Gymnastics club. Where I was instructed to do a forward tuck off of the trampoline onto the mat, inexplicably I somehow chose instead to land on my neck. The worst of it is that my chin was bashed into my chest and caused a big ouchie. Other ouchies include neck and spinal trauma.
Here's what they say:
It appears that you have a pinching of your C8 spinal nerve which exits below C7 (between C7 and T1). The pinching of the nerve is from hyper extension through cervical and thorasic spine causing trauma at the joining of the cervical and thorasic spine (c7 AND t1). The impinging of the C8 spinal nerve would be the cause of the slight numbing of the fingers as C8 spinal nerve is what controls adduction and abduction of the fingers.
Here's an image that can help make sense of that:
So now that you know, you'll surely want to express your sympathies. For information on where to send Cards and Gifts send a self-addressed non-spam email to PAULSOP@PAULSOP.COM. Or you could come around to the back of the house that PAULSOP.COM built where you'll find me recuperating in the hot-tub.
