Chonky line of Dupuytrens scar tissue in the palm

Dupuytrens tissue lifted up in a flap to show digital nerve curving underneath it.

Beautiful Dupuytren’s pretentious and spiral cord today with ulna digital nerve curving underneath, over the A1 pulley which was unusual. It then curved back through the middle at the PIPJ. Just when you think you know #Dupuytrens! #handsurgery

a Xiaflex treatment in my right hand, as well as a grant to cover the hefty 20% copay. I’m so relieved as I’ve been drowning in despair as I haven’t been able to make art for nearly 4 years due to this miserable condition.
Yay for me and my hand! 🎉 🖐️

Photo showing the digital nerve stretched across the Dupuytrens cord

After the cord is released the nerve drops back into position.

Great example showing how the #Dupuytrens Spiral Cord got its name! The radial digital nerve has been stretched and twisted around the growing cord and ends up sitting centrally under the skin at the base of the finger! Before and after removal of the cord. Consent ✅ #HandSurgery

Palm of right hand with an arrow pointing to a bulge on the surface.

Palm of left hand with a Z shaped scar.

When the Viking & Neanderthal genes start acting up. No contraction in the right hand fingers, but starting to have problems twisting things. The left hand shows the Z scar from surgery about 18 months ago.

History of Dupuytren's | The British Dupuytren's Society Where does the disease get it's name? What is it with those Vikings? How has the treatment developed? What about Ledderhose and Peyronie's?

#dupuytrens has been known by many names, including the curse of the MacCrimmons. dupuytrens-society.org.uk/information/.... #handsurgery

‘Viking disease’ came from our interbreeding with Neanderthals Dupuytren’s contracture, which affects the hands, is thought to have been passed on by our cousins 40,000 years ago

Still going strong and on, and on to this day… #HandSurgery #Dupuytrens

Right hand palm with slight raised nodule from Dupuytren Disease.

Left hand palm showing z-plasty scar from surgery.

Here we go again...

Z-plasty holding up well, but the right hand doesn't want to feel left out.

So my palm is almost healed. Final stitches came out a couple of weeks ago. Doctor happy with the result.

The pain is extraordinary. Stabbing neuralgic pain into my little finger. Obviously still swollen too.

Need to make a physiotherapy appointment tomorrow.
