Problem description: Hello doctor! My left thumb is not flexible and can’t be opposed. It’s not painful or itchy. What’s the matter?
Question date: 2021-05-15
Patient information: Age: 34 years old Gender: Female
Problem analysis: Hello, generally this situation is mostly caused by three factors, one is abnormal bone development, which can be diagnosed by X-ray examination. One is median nerve injury, which can have local muscle atrophy, and the third is tenosynovitis.
Guide and suggestion: For the first and third cases, surgical treatment can be performed, and for the second case, only conservative treatment can be performed, with reasonable massage to promote recovery. Nervous problems lead to slower recovery.
