zanooda:

I'm not a big fan of "polyjuiced Dumbledore" idea, but yes, it was his
right hand that was injured. After Harry and DD leave Privet Drive,
they need to Apparate to the village where Slughorn is hiding, and DD
says to Harry:"...you will need to hold on to my arm very tightly. My
left, if you don't mind - as you have noticed, my wand arm is a little
fragile at the moment" (HBP, "Horace Slughorn" ch., p.58 US or p.60
UK).Hope it helps.
