Later that week, while playing basketball in PE, I broke my pinky. I stayed for the school day, but the next morning Mom took me to Urgent Care for an x-ray. I walked out of Urgent Care with a splint, but she wanted me to follow up with an orthopedist. I got another x-ray and because it’s my pinky and it’s not protected by other fingers, she wanted to put it in a cast so I didn’t displace it and have to have surgery.
