Peter,

I am unsure what you are indicating here. When you press down what goes right to the bone? Your finger tip? If thats the case what you describe could possibly be repaired with some reconstructive surgery. Have you asked an orthopod about this? More than one? My problem is more one of scar tissue at this time and that can't be removed without creating more scar tissue.

In the U.S. this might be covered by Worker's Compensation, in Far Frozen Canadia I haven't a clue. But I definately have a Doctor look at.

Bank tellers have a finger condom for counting money. These might supply some padding for you. Not quite a prosthetic but it could offer some support.

Best

Don
