I can explain.

Besides the facebook post anyways.

This person had an injury where there was missing skin on the fingers.
This is an old medical tactic dating back to WW2 they use in order to re-granulate/regrow skin where skin is missing.

It works, but the down side is, the appendage or whatever part has to be sewn under the skin and left there for several weeks.

Also, this is sewn to a stomach, not a back. (Note the navel/belly button.

)

It also promotes good blood flow to the affected area as well...

Excellent explanation Mintycbo... I concur... Are you a wound nurse? If not maybe you should be... I think you would make a darn good one...

I knew that was in the section, was looking around in there, pretty sure there is a topic in the vintage section with B+W pics of hands just like the OP here.
Couldn't find it though.

On the other hand

Smacky posted this...
And in reference to his/her account name and avatar... I find humor.. or a bad pun within.
