I put a staple through my thumb with one of these while I was working a few years ago:

Yeah, okay, I don't think it went through bone. I'm noticing a line that stretches out sideways from the hole now. Staple must have went completely sideways after it hit the bone. Won't bother with a visit to the doctor.

No shit? Unless you're bones are fucked up there's no way that staple went through your bone and fractured it. You would be in a lot more pain if it somehow did also.

Something like that. It really didn't do any damage at all, considering. My skin closed up really quickly around it. All that's left now is a little dot and an imprint of where the staple went in sideways.

I really didn't know how strong/weak bone was, and I've never fractured a bone so wouldn't know what a fracture feels like.

I just thought it went through yesterday since the staple pulled out pretty straight, as if it went through the bone. I couldn't tell that it actually just went in sideways over top of the bone.

Unfortunately I was using my own stapler...probably not covered. :p

Fractures hurt like shit. I've only had micro fractures on my toes and even then I couldn't bear any weight on them.
