When Zac Efron hurts, we hurt.

Fortunately, though, the handsome Townies star is on the mend. Thursday on Live With Kelly and Michael, Zac explained he was feeling better after sustaining a painful hand injury last week.

"I broke it a couple days ago on set," he related, showing Kelly Ripa and guest host Carrie Ann Inaba his very swollen right hand next to his regular-size left one.

The 25-year-old star said the injury occurred "during filming, it was during a stage fight with Dave Franco."

"I had to go back to work so I couldn't really wear a cast," he added. "So they [the medics] put like a titanium plate in it and a bunch of screws."

"I don't know why I'm telling you this," he said. "My hand in theory is back to normal, it just looks really gross."

Aw. There is nothing gross about that man!
