Major problem / Symptomatic Areas
Wrist, Hand - Posterior - Right
Hi. My question is regarding post finger surgery. I am in care of a Dr (but don't go back for 3 more weeks) and in physical therapy.
I had surgery on a broken ring finger and a bone spur removed. I had a pin removed from my finger after 5 weeks and have been in physical therapy for an additional 3 weeks (8 weeks total since my surgery).
My 2 questions, I really just need another opinion, are my finger is still significantly swollen - haven't seen any reduction is swelling - is this normal or should I be worried?
Also, I perform physical therapy exercises every 2 hours and my finger is still stiff (8 weeks after surgery, 3 weeks into therapy) when I restart my exercise every 2 hours. I just thought it would slowly start to get easier to bend. Is this typical?
Thank you for your time.
