Sherry, last weekend I was washing my car and right when I was done screwing the nozzle back on the hose, I went in the house and inbetween my ring and third finger, it started feeling really funny. Happened really fast, like it was sensitive and getting some edema and with discoloration. Felt like a hematoma was forming. Very strange. So I grabbed a frozen bag of peas and iced it. Then by the next day the swelling went down and the bruising set in. After a few days it all cleared.
