Hi.
The hot water handle for the bathroom faucet broke off. Literally broke off in my hand as I was turning it.
Here's an image:

I bought replacement handles, removed the cap and screw of the old handles, but when I tried to remove the current ones they wouldn't budge. Neither hot, nor cold.
I did a bit of research online and found that there is a tool called a Faucet Handle Puller (something like this), that is meant to help with exactly this task of pulling off stuck handles. I plan to get one, but I'm not sure if this will help pull off the knob left of the broken handle.
If anyone could please give me some advise on how to do this, I would really appreciate it : )
Thanks
