Finger Phalangeal Fracture Deformity Correction FAQ
How long does it take the finger to heal following surgery to fix a deformity?
The amount of time it takes to heal can change based on the type of surgery done, the severity of the fracture, and the speed at which each person heals. The healing of the bone often takes a few weeks to a few months. It can take more time to fully recuperate and resume routine activities.
After having surgery to repair a deformity, when can I start moving my finger?
The specific fracture, the surgery done, and the surgeon’s recommendations will all affect when finger mobility can start. To avoid stiffness, modest range-of-motion exercises may occasionally be started right away after surgery. On the other hand, it’s crucial to adhere to the surgeon’s recommendations regarding mobility limits and gradually resume finger activity.
Will I feel pain during the healing process?
After deformity correction surgery, some discomfort and swelling are typical. To treat any postoperative discomfort, the surgeon will prescribe the appropriate painkillers. The pain should gradually lessen as the healing process advances. It’s critical to inform your healthcare physician of any severe or chronic pain.
Can many fingers have deformity corrective surgery at the same time?
If necessary, it is possible to fix deformities in several fingers at once during surgery. The severity of the fractures, the difficulty of the treatment, and the patient’s general condition all play a role in this choice. On a case-by-case basis, the surgeon will choose the best course of action.
