Stiffness in hands

2017-10-16 05:33:22
Hi, My cousin has had surgery to his left hand and ring finger for broken bones, it's been a month now and the cast removed. He wants to know for how long the stiffness in the palm and fingers would remain for and also if removal of dead skin helps speed up the process of loosening the same.. Thanks for any and all help!

Hi he needs to start his rehabilitation with Physiotherapist to improve range of motion and muscle strength. Scaly skin should be washed with soap and water and apply any moisturiser it works well.
