Emergency room doctors are urging you not to unblock snowblowers with your hands.
The Ottawa Hospital says three men visited the E-R yesterday afternoon after trying to unblock snowblower chutes.
The injuries ranged from missing fingertips to entire fingers that could not be reattached.
Dr. Andrew Gee says people simply forget the force of the machine and try to push snow blockages through while the snowblower is still running.
He says the best option is to use a broom handle to unclog.
