The one time I dropped something on my foot it missed the toe cap and landed on the middle of my footnever wear them. the chances of crippled feet from wearing steelies is far greater than dropping something on my toes.

Depends on the situation, I witnessed a colleague drop a motor gearbox assembly on his foot. The toe cap saved him from a very serious injury.never wear them. the chances of crippled feet from wearing steelies is far greater than dropping something on my toes.
Sorry if this is in the wrong area, but for the older aged members , Tel and me included we have all heard of the usual painful problems, bad back knees etc.
But recently I have noticed the pain in my right (yes I'M RIGHT HANDED) arms wrist shoulders due to I think of being right handed using hammers .screwdrivers , manhandling equipment, you must get the picture.
I,m retired now so it's not a bother to me workwise just wondering ,are there any older members that suffer from right or left handed muscle problems , or left if you are that way inclined, and is there anyway of defeating his problem.
It causes me pain at night and during the day, anything thing the younger members can do to avoid this painful experience, believe it aint funny, if my experience is any thing to go by, take care Guys look after your bodies, making dosh is not the B all and end all of life, use the PEP and don't worry what others say, and good luck.

Pain like that is easily remedied by right elbow exercise, but must be resting on a bar at the time, ask Tel.I've found that ratchet crimp tools over extend the third knuckle on my third finger, bottom one on the grip.
After a while it can be quite painful and take days to recover.
right elbow in use holding up pint. left elbow under the arse of the floozie on the next stool.Pain like that is easily remedied by right elbow exercise, but must be resting on a bar at the time, ask Tel.
Cricky Tel you are far more flexible than I am, my elbows can't get that far apart. ?right elbow in use holding up pint. left elbow under the arse of the floozie on the next stool.
So Sorry to hear that Mate good advice, I have had a brain tumor removed and treated and Prostate cancer operated and removed so feel your anguish,if you don't mind make trhe most of what time you have left, if you need a visit call on me,Just one word of warning.
I thought I was indescribable.
I thought my aches and pains were down to wear and tear from my abusing my body at work.
They weren’t, I had cancer, I ignored it.
I ended up paralysed.
Look after yourself when it goes wrong it can go wrong big time and you might not realise what is happening to you.
My cancer, prostate cancer, no known attributable cause, mine is stage 4.
It has spread through my body.
Inoperable, not treatable with chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
I am just going to have to try and live as long as I can with the cancer.
My consultant has given me a 50% chance of living for another 3 years, reducing survival rate after that.
I could have been diagnosed sooner IF I had given in to the nagging of my wife, or recognised the symptoms.
I didn’t, so now I am dying of cancer.
Kind of changes your perspective somewhat.
Sadly my "indestructible" was from losing the wife to pancreatic.Kind of changes your perspective somewhat.
Same advice here, it can creep up on you and you just keep chipping away putting the pain down to abuse.
If you have any unusual pain that just keeps nagging on , get it checked out.
I had shoulder pain that I put down to strain, it got to that it was more than tolerable and turned out to be Lymphoma. The shoulder pain was a secondary tumour.
