Non moving fingers after RTA

2023-01-12 17:43:45
My father had RTA 3 months back with humerus bone fracture and artery damage. Which was repaired by surgery. But now he is not able to fold his fingers of left hand completely. So he is not getting grip. NCV TEST shows left median and ulnar nerve inexcitable. Please suggest what should be the next treatment.
