Boxers knuckle or Sagittal hood rupture

[DaGenius]

Hello sherdog strikers

Well I finally got my first hand injury in martial arts. It's loosely called boxers knuckle but basically i tore one of the little bands that hold your hand (back side) tendons in place. No surgery just splint for 4 weeks then hand rehab.

Any of you had this before and my real question when did you return to striking training?

No advice on that injury but curious as to how it happened.

Sadly enough it wasn't striking. I was in Bjj class after Muay Thai and I had a hand in my guys the collar as we both moved we heard a pop and my hand looked weird. That's when I made a fist and saw the tendon pop out of place. There are a couple of YouTube videos that show pretty close to what it was for me.

I'm now on to rehab
