    Pain is just weakness leaving the body. Seriously though you'll be ok after a week or two the pain will dissipate. Scrapping wise you might want to take it easy maybe smash stuff with a hammer.

    anything with screws should only take 1 hand.

    I can do computers with 1 hand.

    That just sucks. I can not imagine going without my dominant hand.

    ^THIS!^

    I'd have to tie it to my leg, else I'd just use it by rote & not even be thinking about it.... that is, until the pain reminded me.
