I am going to take an exam for occupational therapy at Keiser University. And we are learning about swan neck deformities, I cannot say how much your video has helped me and your explanation at the end was wonderful, keep doing what you're doing and thank you so very much I am looking forward to your next videos, which I learned a lot from.
Dr. Ebrahheim thank you sooooo much for your thorough explanation of BSyndrome I am suffering from from a 15 feet fall from a ladder :( and now in therapy and may have to do surgery wish you were in NY I may come to you sounds like u know what you are doing!!!!!!! best wishes!
I've been having Boutonniere Deformity on my right hand little finger for more than a decade... However, it's not too severe: there is no arthritis, and I can make a complete fist. I consulted a very experienced hand surgeon yesterday and I'd like to share his input on this: 1. Larry Bird had this problem on the same finger long time ago, and he still has it. We don't need to discuss why he didn't fix it in the first place, but I think there must be a reason he is not fixing it now. 2. This is one of the most difficult problems for Orthopedists; a lot of procedures, long treating and recovery period, it's not guaranteed that your finger will be better after the surgery. This is the sad part, there is a risk that you can't make a fist or you completely lose mobility on the finger after the surgery. According to aaos, "Surgery can reduce pain and improve functioning, but it may not be able to fully correct the condition and make the finger look normal. If the boutonniere deformity remains untreated for more than 3 weeks, it becomes much more difficult to treat." So get it fixed as early as possible within 3 weeks. But if it's too late, like my situation, you need to think a lot and do some research before you make a decision.
I've been having swan neck pointer fingers for as long as I can remember and I was too embarrassed/shy to tell my doctor about it when I was little! My mom knew about it but she never brought it up to the doctor's attention either. I brought it up to one doctor now that I'm 22 and she had no idea and thought it was genetics but I told her my mom and dad don't have this. However my sister has boutonniere on her pinkies and I think also swan neck. I am using a ring split on one finger and I hope it will eventually help my finger be normal. although I know this would've been more effective had I started treating this issue sooner, I can't go back in time and surgery seems way to agressive! It seems tempting though bc you would think you would get a "perfectly straight finger" after surgery but that doesn't outweigh the risks/complications + scars! (Personally I think scars would be worse bc then people would notice your hands for sure and you would have to explain why you got surgery) vs with no surgery nobody can tell I have swan neck deformity unless I am extending my finger
thank you so much for this. It allowed me to cut down the splint I got from urgent care because i have the boutineere type in my left pinky so now i freed up my dip and mip joint and i can type this comment.
Feli González I got cut on my middle finger above the last joint and the tip keeps falling down it doesn’t straighten this happen 3 months ago I was in a splint for 2 months and I did therapy I gotta a lil of mobility but my tip of my finger falls down is not straight should o re splint it again ?
I am 4 years late to reply. But if you don't mind me asking, how old were you? For so long I thought I was just double jointed but now I realised it's SND. I just turned 17 last week and am wondering if it's too late
I have this problem with my middle fingers I always thought that something happen to me when I was younger and now 17 years later I found out what the problem is
Six months since my injury and I have to say I am not happy with my healing. Despite wearing the splint for 13 weeks and another month after at night only...I have much difficulty moving my finger and I can't straighten the tip. It's permanently deformed. Difficult to play my guitar.
I fractured my pinky near the knuckle and surgeons never reset it. It’s in a hyper deformed position and malrotated. Happened a year ago and hard to make bar chords. Been debating on getting surgery man but so scared it’ll make it worse with all the scar tissue and stiffness cause I have great mobility in it now
I have a pblm since my birth...my left hand little finger is bending.....they could not afford the expenses so I have to bear that pblm all along with.and now I'm 19 and this is so awkward when people around me r looking at my hand... and make pranks.... is this a way.....if it is plz help mee...iwanna be like others... I wanna simply shake hands easily.....
is it bad that I thought my finger was actually normal until my cousin who has a swan neck told me about it?? I see a lot of comments about how they have problems with it but.. uhhh.. I don't really need a straight pinky and my father has the same thing too.... ???
My mother had the boutoniere deformity. Her little finger on both hands was from birth. I suppose it was a genetic deformity. Both fingers were exactly bent the same. She never had pain from it and she learned to play the piano really good. Mostly gospel music. It didn't bother her. She lived to be 80. 1916-1996.
So how to treatment this deformity and don’t use a scalpel , l still don’t cearly understand 😢😢.the reason l think is my English aren’t very good . 😢 l got boutonnière deformity last two years,beause of an car accident what let my finger hurt 😢. The doctor said don’t care about this tiny deformity just l can’t play paino but l still hope my little finger can work .anyway Thanks u share this knowledge for who get boutonnière deformity.maybe l watch this short 100 times will know how to do for my finger
It's been 6 months for me, I can play piano, guitar very easily, but struggling with violin because of the full bend. I keep my finger in a straight splint all night, everynight. It will hurt for a while and stiff in the morning. If you move it in water it will really help. Then practice piano, take ibuprofen 2x a day. You will fix it 80 to 90% of usage. Better than cutting into it. Hope this helps! But healing ones self isn't for everyone, I'm not a doctor but I did the research! My husky did this to my finger!🐾
Salve a tutti. Mi potete descrivere in maniera tecnica e dettagliato in cosa consiste la correzione del dito a collo di cigno secondo zancolli?? Grazie
where can I get one of these splints. I had my fingers broken when attacked by a dog. I have a very very severe boutonniere deformity. This would help tremendously!!!
What are the chances of a full recovery from a Boutonniere Deformity? I'm somone that has the deformity in my right pinky finger. It's been about 12 months since surgery and 6+ months since my last physio. Unfortuntely the finger has returned to its position it was prior to surgery. Just looking for any help at all. I guess surgery again would be an option but I'm not entirely convinced that it's the only way to fix it. My left pinky finger (non injured one) has an odd PIP where it can bend both ways, my right pinky use to be able to do the same thing before the injury occured.
Sir, if you could dedicate the time to glance into my situation, i would be eternally great full, if you possess the knowledge about such, could we chat somewhere else so i could send you a picture of my ruptured tendon on my finger (in the phalange area). I would like you to tell me if i need surgery, of just a splint. Thank you.
And also i have the injury of 'CENTRAL SLIP RUPTURE' to last finger. i am got abnormal condizione of my last 3 fingers, finger 3,4&5 by an accident in last year. Any solutions is their for this problem
I have a problem in middle finger & ring finger that is not straight in the tip of finger. 'RUPTURED EXTENSOR TENDON' what to do gentleman. Please advice me...
Is there actually anyone here that has gone through surgery and can tell their experience? I've had this deformity since last year (playing volleyball) in my fifth finger and since they could not recognize it at the hospital i didn't take care of it properly and now it's been like this for long.
Andrea Mandracchia I got this injury about 2-3 weeks ago from fighting I splinted it a hour or so later and didn't get medical attention until 5 days later and didn't get to see a hand specialist until 3 days ago and I was told to keep my finger splinted for 6 weeks by the specialist and said not to bend it at all and it will heal up fine. my advice is to get medical attention asap after the injury occur.
i had an injury at my pinkie playing baseball, the finger bend to the opposite side. it passed almost an year already but the finger never went back as the same. I dont know why and I am pretty sad about it. I made X-ray twice and went to the doctor. My bone is completely straight but the ligament was sprained, and I really dont understand why I have a big pinkie finger now. For sure it is better and smaller than last year but it is still very visible. Do you know what it is?
Ojalá de mi video que subí con anterioridad me pudiesen de favor en informar sí es viable la reconstrucción de mi dedo para que logre quedar de forma normal. saludos y gracias
hi my mom fingure has bend from 5 to 6 years the fingures are not normal its jst lyk hen fingure any treatment please. she suffered from chikungunya 6 years back now she has joint pains body pain and fingure prblm. pls help me form my treatment thank you
Boutonnière Deformities. My advice to anyone is to endure all physiotherapist pain if offered. Do your exercises & wear your finger splints even when they have to be forced on over the swelling. I wish I had this info at hand at the time & I wouldn't have my amputation to look forward to. Chase dates up! Just coz it's the NHS & there busy, trust me u don't want to end up in my position due to health carers INCOMPETENCE & Orthopaedic Surgeons are not gods, they make mistakes too. Google your surgeon & I think you might be surprised when there known for drink driving & not surgery. Good luck 🍀
I have a terrible boutonniere deformity on my right ring finger from a surgery i had a few years ago. Its becoming a nuisance and quite painful at times. I don't have insurance so surgery is not an option at the moment. Any suggestions to loosen these tendons up?
I meet an accident before one year my little finger pip joint broken. After surgery my pip joint not bending. It only in straight position is ther possible to get my finger back normal
Hi rajesh kumar, y bcoz your finger not bending means ? your finger nerve cutted. u told u had a surgery, I dont know how the doctors missed to join the nerve? after 1 year I don't know it's possible to bend it back. ur cutted nerve slowly go inside in ur palm bcoz iam also had the same problem on 2005 April, but after one and half month I made a surgery after that my middle finger bended but it's not that much flexible like previous , now iam having swan neck deformity, iam not feeling my natural gripness
It's been 8 months since my boutonniere deformity on my pinky. I was on splints for about 2-3 months and now my deformity is coming back.(Right now it's not as bad as before. My finger was badly bent that I couldn't even straighten it). I can straighten my finger now, but the problem is my joints are not straight.(My DIP joint is bent down, while my PIP joint is pointed up). And the other issue is when I relax my pinky,, my PIP joint is bent to a 90 degree angle, but my DIP joint can't bend/relax like it's supposed to unless I force it to. And it's same when I purposely curl my pinky. I have to force it to bend. Is surgery the only solution? Will splinting it now still work?? Please reply...
Oh and my finger is still swollen and the huge callus is still on my PIP joint. I also forgot to mention that a tiny piece of my middle phalanx. The injury is very close to the PIP joint. I'm not sure if the fracture has healed yet.) Also when I do finger exercises, my PIP joint hurts.
I can't straighten my pinky at all, i think you have to get surgery, but i dont want to get it, oh and i dont even know when or how my finger got like this, i think maybe when i was like 9, 4 years ago🤷♀️
