Suzuki frame fixation
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.

Try moving your finger as much as possible.
Stop when it hurts you, Do not exert your fingers.
Even moving it few times a day is enough don't over do it.
Next Steps
take some rest from finger movements.
