    I know the basic don't submerge them in water, but what else should I be doing to take care of them? I got 4 on my right index this weekend (that's why I've been scarce) and I'm not sure if I should be going some of the things my job requires. I can't be on bar, so I'm on register a lot, but some of the lift I do worries me. I've never had them before so I coukd use some thoughts.

    You might want to keep them wrapped with a bandage to protect them from the outside world.  Also, try to avoid moving the finger around too much so you don't tear the stitches.  I would be worried about lifting things with that hand right now.

    I do keep it wrapped up (I don't need everyone to see how icky they are!) and I am careful about how I move it. Maybe I'm just paranoid. lol.

    Maybe a little!  I'm sure it will be better before you know it!

    I've never had stitches so I don't know anything about them, but rest up as much as you can so you can get your mouse clicking abilities back! ;)

    P.S. I also love your new avatar MissAsB!
