What happened
I accidentally smacked my left hand into the wall while trying to grab a paper towel. I was discharging a patient from PACU Ba y1. Patient was in the wheelchair and I thought he was starting to spill his Jello. I went to quickly reach for a paper towel and accidentally wacked the wall with my left hand thumb. It is now difficult to use my left thumb especially difficult to grip anything.
