i must be like 12-13 weeks now going strong... apatr from double scar tissue and not being able to stretch the little finer out all the way, even with sleeping in a different spint to counter act it... its not the same and probably never will be. it was making a fist i was worried about but turned out ok.. just the other way is a pain in the arse
I am 4 weeks post surgery. It's hard to type with one hand but here we go. i feel like my ring finger is holding my pinky in place when i make a manually place my fingers in place to a fist fist...or hold a fist. I'm still in the1st splint. Is it easier to flex our finger after we get the 2nd splint? i am extremely worried i won't be able to flex all the way. How is your injury coming along? You guys are defn ahead of me in weeks...
@CHALA1 well it will be 2 weeks since surgery this wednesday,thats when i have my stitches out,movement is sorta ok,its still swolen, But i can feel the tendon catching when i do my exercise. Wondering if this is down to the scar/stitches being in....
The tendon catching is completely normal. Keep it moving. The mistake i made was when this happened to me I thought it best not to move the tendon at all. How wrong i was. I now can't move the tip of the finger at all and can no longer make a fist. Very annoying.
I have to have a 2nd surgery in couple of month to free up the scarred tendons from the bones.
Keep it moving no matter what, i wish i had a2nd chance. No one stressed to me how important it was.

Hi mate, I had my fdp and Fds tendon lacerted in my little finger aswell. Exact same injury, but in the right hand.
I've had it re-attached but now scar tissue has set in. How are you getting on movement wise?
