Good to know this information is so helpful. I use an essential oil balm and rub my hands together up and down as though warming my hands. It’s helping.
THANK YOU!!!! This is very helpful unlike my Orthopedic surgeon who told me I couldn't do a thing about this (but added 'it hasn't been proven but" in regards to stretching) and his PA even told me that what you're showing me here wouldn't help. Needless to say they are in my rear view mirrow.
Oh thanks a million Your heaven sent First time to your utube channel Such great information I was doing the excise with the video my hand feels so much better already I will do exactly as you say 2 or 3 times a day Wow God answers prayers Bless you
Ty for 2 years I didn't know what was wrong it happen after I got out of the coma I don't really go to doctors that often me seeing this video definitely take some weight off my shoulders to go to a doctor and get it taken care of
I fell fractured my L proximal humerus 5/29. Conservative treatment. Noticed the flexor tendon below ring finger is protruding and stiff like a rope. Exercise ball does nothing. Your video is a blessing. Stretching my ring finger back is killer am doing it w massage going towards wrist, I was massaging wrong going towards finger. Thanks so much for your video! I have hope now.
My dupuytrens is from genetics, I've been using Epsom salts and massaging with an essential oil along with some exercises, it really helps with the inflammation.
Thank you for this information. I just started noticing a hard painful lump in my palm about a week now, in my right hand. I figured it had something to do with a tendon, as it felt tight & getting large & quite painful to the touch ( like a bone growth ) I started massaging & pressing on the area three days ago, as the pain was disturbing my sleep, & realized that’s what I need to keep doing, as it reduced the lump & pain, & I’m able to sleep now. I will try soaking in warm Epson salt water as well. Thank you.

I have had this for ages I am 57 I remember having it in my 20s it never hurts though i thought they were caluses or calcium desposite from playing baseball gripping a bat or whatever.I have it on both hands.I remember showing my dad about 15 years ago when he was in his late 70s and he said he had it too
Thanks Dr Paul, In have this pain from hitting golf balls every the other day. I am 53yrs old. I think the ages palm going to rebel against me now. I stopped hitting balls and will use your recommended massage to rest it!
Hi, Thank you for your informative video. The only question I have is how do you even get it? I have it but how did I get it? Also I have a similar lump in the bottom of my foot and that’s called something else. Are the two related? How do you know for sure what it is?
This is what I have. Great video! I'm going to use all the advice for helping it. Mine is in the early stages so I have no finger deformity, just the nodules forming on both my hands in the same section as the gentleman does. Thanks for making this video. I think it would be easier for someone else to massage the hand other then myself. I think I would baby it a bit if it started to hurt. LOL
I have not been diagnosed with Dypuytrens syndrome but facing same issue. It is very painful. I tried magnesium supplements along with vitamin D and it works. I think one should try raking magnesium malate or glycinate as magnesium us a natural myscle relaxer. Also take Vitamin D separately as most of us are low on Vitamin D. Good luck. Let me know if magnesium works for you
I had surgery to remove the problem. My hand works just fine. I did not need any physio afterwards and my surgeon was also a board certified plastic surgeon so you can’t even see the tiny scar.
@@OrthoEvalPal ok, THANKS. I've just self diagnosed myself with this and I posit that I have gained it by playing guitar standing up without a strap, so holding the guitar and playing it at the same time, which I have been doing this last year a lot! And a month ago I noticed the lumps that were not there before. Have you heard it associated with guitarists? Do you think my theory likely?

I have small brown spots on my palm that popped out yesterday suddenly. But there are no side effects at all. I don't know what they are or why i have these. please can you suggest me something!
Nice and very informative video thanks . I too have such nodule in one hand , some kind of swelling. But it pains when I touch it. Fingers movement is OK. What should I do??
I'm not sure if this is what I have but although I have had an ultra sound (where I live in England) on my hand today don't fully buy what I have been advised which is that the 4 lumps I now have which started as one in 2020 is a type of change in tissue formation. Potentially caused by playing my guitar for a year. Is this possible? I am trying to find a name for the condition but can't find anything on the formation of the tissue changing through pressure. I was also told that because they're part of the tissue I wouldn't be able to have any surgery to remove them. I'm guessing its like a mutation of the tissue cells. Any advice would be appreciated. I wonder where mobile phones have resulted in this as I have used them for around 15 years including for work.
I this same thing no1 els in my family has ever had it but I am the only one that has played golf since young age and used my hands a lot for work I have a literal hole in my hand
I shattered my left wrist in 2021. After surgery and 10 months of painful occupational therapy, I’m doing better but not 100%. Tonight I noticed a hard lump on my mid-palm below the ring finger. Could the lack of total recovery of my hand/wrist be a factor in this? Thx!!
Ive had operations on both hands. One was more or less successful the other not so good as the tendon is still tight. Not sure if these exercises will help though as it is quite tight.
I've actually had a few patients for other issues tell me they were able to stave off surgery by massaging and stretching it. Not everyone will respond that way but some have.
Hi, i am 27 and already have the nodule for few years. I am an active sports player, i want to know is it okay to play volleyball and go to gym? Whenever i hit the ball or do pushups I have little pain. It will be useful for me to know, thanks.
just be mindful of stretching the part of issue and using that only gently. Volleyball would be fine. Gym is OK, but think about what parts of the hand you will use and what tendons are stretched and how....some people use gel gloves for weights I've heard...
Hi, I find your videos very useful and good explanations. Will I be able to see the thickened tendon and nodule changing in my hand as I do what you are showing without aggravating the issue?
Mine has developed as a result of a finger injury which still isn't remedied. I have been going to OT for 4.5 months and it just seems to be getting worse, the finger and the palm.
@@sergiochavezlazo5362 Actually I just canceled two upcoming appointments because the OT seems to be creating other issues with my hand. My pinky finger isn't working properly now, my middle finger doesn't bend completely and I'm experiencing tingling in my pinky and ring fingers. I am going to seek treatment elsewhere. I really think because of the Drs diagnosis almost a year ago, that I have not been given proper treatment. It's been almost a year since my initial injury and I'm in worse shape. I have photos documenting what's been going on. If you feel like OT isn't working I suggest you quit before it starts making matters worse.
@@sergiochavezlazo5362 I had casts on my finger for months. I also had a traction device so I hadn't been using the hand in a typical fashion. Since my last OT appointment I have been trying to use it and do exercises and massaging it ... the Dupuytren's seems to be smoothing out. This seems like a move toward healing. I'm also trying to flex and move my fingers so my grip strengthens. I kept asking for PT as well but was dismissed. The OT asked if Dupuytren's runs in my family. I have 6 sisters and 3 brothers, tons of aunts and uncles...no one has ever had it.
He says gentle pressure. I use an ointment I made and rub my hands together up and down as if to warm my hands. I’m doing it while going for a walk. Don’t over do it.
This is exactly what happened to my hand. I've had it for 7 months Thank you very much for this informative video
We love u sir ❤️❤️❤️ from india.. thousands of undergrads watch ur videos here
Good to know this information is so helpful. I use an essential oil balm and rub my hands together up and down as though warming my hands. It’s helping.

Thanks, it work ..we need lost & lots of video clips like this one, very helpful...again, thanks.
Thank you, I noticed I had this a couple weeks ago. I tried what you said, and it went away right away, but it did hurt at first. Thank you!!
My dupuytrens is from genetics, I've been using Epsom salts and massaging with an essential oil along with some exercises, it really helps with the inflammation.
Thanks for sharing!!
Yeah my mum had it bad and I have it in my left hand now ... I'm 36yrs old... What does the operation do in the early stages ? Will it come back ?
Thanks for the suggestion
What Oils did you use?
My maternal Grandmother had it, so did my Mom, and now I do too.
Glad to see those masks. They really helped.

My dear father had this disease and had the scarring cut out of his hand alternating between the two about once a year.
Thank you for your instructional videos. This runs in my family. It comes down our genetic line. It's widely known as Vikings Disease.
Hmm is this common in people of Scandinavian origin? What’s the origin of the name?

I read a comment said they rub magnesium oil into the palms.
I had this from prolonged use of elbow crutches. The hand grip was just long enough to reach the spot - my ring and little fingers on both hands.
Are there any concerns about pressure into the tendons while massaging and would treatment of the flexor muscles of the fingers be helpful
thank you so much
So helpful, thank you so much.
اجريت لي عملية وكانت بتكسير التليف الممتد الى الاصابع بالأبرة وثم وضع دهن يأخذ من البطن في فراغات التليف التي كسرت ..وكانت عملية ناجحة جداً .
Hello Paul, thanks for the video. What'll be the difference between Dupuytren's Contracture and trigger finger?
there's a video on the net on youtube that tells you; just enter your question in basic form my snuggly one!
I had surgery to remove the problem. My hand works just fine. I did not need any physio afterwards and my surgeon was also a board certified plastic surgeon so you can’t even see the tiny scar.
That is awesome! Good for you. They don't all turn out that way.
Hopefully it don't spread now. Mine went to 3 other fingers 7 months after surgery
@@LuxuryZoneProductions
I’m sorry to hear that. I probably have a mild case.
I have this in my left hand as of recently. Should I go to the Dr. now or wait for bending of finger?
I would go before it starts to bend your finger.
Dr. Where is your office? I have one in each hand.
This is bizarre. I have the same exact condition in the same hand and I have the same first name as the patient.
Just met a girl with my daughter's same name and exact date of birth. day, month and year. They went to the same college. What a mess.
@@OrthoEvalPal is this condition on the increase do you think??
@@drnoahjuvalhararihackableanima I don’t think so. I think there is more information about it now and more recognition.

Nice and very informative video thanks . I too have such nodule in one hand , some kind of swelling. But it pains when I touch it. Fingers movement is OK. What should I do??
I have this on the same place lik this man had ....how does it even developed tell me please
Lemon ginger good oil few drops make green tea it helps, use apple cider vinegar, cut down sugar and milk, eat fruits and vegetables
Thanks
You are welcome!
