Mayim Bialik’s lawsuit was filed recently over a car accident, but the actress stressed that she did not nearly lose her hand, said a report this week.

Bialik, who stars in “The Big Bang Theory,” spoke with E! News last week, saying she isn’t pain-free after getting in the accident.

“I did not almost lose my hand,” she said.

“I sustained significant injuries for which I am still recovering and will continue to be recovering,” she added.

Bialik said she filed a lawsuit against the other driver and Hertz Rent-a-Car.

“I will be okay,” she wrote in her blog in August. “I have all my fingers but a very impaired right hand. It was very bloody and scary but I am ok. A man named Tim and another man whose name I don’t know saved me from losing a lot of blood and helped me talk to my husband at the scene. I am grateful to them.”

She added: “I didn’t tear any artery, nerve, or tendons. It could have been so much worse. I will have a long recovery and my assistant Brandon will help type my blogs for now. He won’t write them, I’ll dictate.”

Bialik wrote she will continue on “The Big Bang Theory.”
