The actress attempted to free herself of the anchor ropes when the heavy boating machinery seared into her ring finger, cutting it off.
LiLo`s boating buddies scrambled and found the finger of the Hollywood starlet, at which time she was taken to an emergency room, where an emergency surgical procedure to reattach it was performed.
She shared an image of the injury on her Snapchat account, telling her followers: `I almost lost my finger from the anchor. Well, I lost half my finger, thank goodness we found the piece of my finger… I just had surgery to fix it… it hurts so bad.`
In the shot, Lindsay`s holding out her mangled hand, with her ring finger wrapped in gauze and a band-aid.
The Parent Trap star initially embarked into the Eurasian area to conduct a humanitarian mission in her support for refugees fleeing from Syria.
There, she paid visits to an Istanbul hospital as well as the home of the Hussiens, a family of Syrian refugees.
