Extensor tendon on right thumb - surgery
I hurt my hand while playing cricket and have damaged my right thumb. I am currently working in Bahrain and doctors here have adviced me to do a surgery. Attaching ultrasound report, xray image. I am unable to completely stretch my thumb. It doesnt pain normally but if someone forced my thumb to stretch, then it hurts. Is surgery really required?
