Would that it were my writing hand, since it would bother me little to write or type. The pinkie on the right hand doesn't really type many letters, but the left pinkie is the anchor for left hand *and* 5he A
I DON'T wear helmet on computer but did on bike; insisted son did so also, and the helmet (plus his backpack full of books, bion) pretty much saved his life when stupid@##$@#$@$#$@# drove her car into him as he crossed street in marked crossing and car had red light. His knee got messed up some, he had sore spots, but beats holy heck outta head getting craxcked the way helmet did (and it met Aussie standards, hifhest in the world!)
My accident mucgh less exciting ... kitchen chair/stool bit me as I repositioned it ... but did so with *my* full strength/weight forcing it into open (and finger cruching) position. Only took 20 min in running 40degF water to stop throbbing. Biggest surprise was that I managed to makw splint to hold it with only one good hand ... a feat I struggled with today with fsr less pain in pinky. 

hands cramping ... gotta go.

Hi L.D.,
                 What did you do to your pinkie??
Catch it in a car door??  Which hand, your
writing hand?? I broke the metacarpal near the knuckle 
of my left pinky last summer when I went
head 1st over the handle bars of my 10
speed bicycle. But the broken foot and scuffed up face were more of a nuisance. 
I was wearing a helmet. I STRONGLY
recommend a helmet !!  It saved me from
more serious damage.
