This is a poorly researched storyline.

If someone has an injury like Andy has sustained they would be unable to know if nerve damage is permanent until at least a month after the injury. A test would then be done to assess the degree of damage.

Nerves can continue to improve months after the initial injury.

I know it's only a soap but they should at least mention that he would require tests etc rather than send him home without any advice.

They did say that he would have to come back everyday and wouldn't know the true extent of the damage for sometime

They have said that. Andy is being overly - negative about the injury because Bernice has been whispering in his ear.

I think you're right OP...

When I got my hand stuck in Moira's Tractor... Ahem... it was lost for months... the feeling that is...

At least it give Andy something to be grumpy about... I'm sick of seeing is happy smiling face around the village...

Fed up already with Andy moaning and moping about the place.
So he got his arm caught in a tractor, whoopee-bloody-do.

My old Nan got her tit caught in a mangle once, yet she was down the Bingo that same night and won ten bob and 20 Players.
