Well, not a total layoff as I did 45 mins of foot-heavy practice today, but that's instead of the 2hrs I usually do.
The reason is that hard skin/callouses I've got on my hands have cracked and are really painful.
It's my right hand fulcrum position on my index finger that's caused me this most recent pain. Had a band practice last night and a crack opened up across the joint. I was wearing golf gloves but it still cracked open.
My left hand developed a callous and cracked across the middle joint of the middle finger which is where I seem to slam the snare from.
If nothing else it's shown me where the main area of work takes place on each hand and that I don't really have a matched grip.
I'm on light practice for a few days now and wearing gloves on both hands to try and get the hard skin/cracking to heal.
Anyone else had these kind of problems?
