The Incident
The singer explained how a seemingly innocuous moment led to an injury to his little finger. Attempting to save a falling glass bottle, he accidentally struck his hand, resulting in a torn tendon in his pinky finger. Fortunately, X-Ray results revealed no signs of bone fractures.
Despite the absence of fractures, JJ Lin revealed that he would be wearing a finger cast 24/7 for the next six weeks. This section will explore the necessity of the cast and discuss the expected recovery time for such injuries.
Noteworthily, Lin, who is known for playing the piano in his concerts, has two upcoming performances scheduled next week, on the 25th and 26th November, and it remains to be seen if he can still perform.
