Suzuki frame fixation

2020-08-22 13:22:04
Hi there! I got my index finger fracture via Suzuki frame fixation yesterday. I got complete mobilization post the surgical procedure. I was able to move and bend the finger completely. Doctor advised to move the finger often to get full mobilization. But the problem now is, I have a lot of pain while moving the finger, I'm not even able to move 30 degrees. Attached an x-ray of the fracture.
