Flexor injuries occur as a result of cutting and penetrating object injuries from the palm. As a result of sports or arthritic injuries, the flexor tendon can be injured, frayed, or even torn. Symptoms include pain, swelling, and the inability to bend.
Necessary precautions should be taken by considering hand, wrist, and palm incisions. Flexor tendon injuries, which are serious, do not heal spontaneously and require surgical intervention. Getting help from a successful surgeon will contribute to the successful conclusion of flexor tendon surgery. Your doctor will first test the tendons individually to determine which tendons are affected. Then, the patient is taken to surgical operation as soon as possible, and the tendons, veins, and incisions are completely repaired.
Like hand soft-tissue reconstruction surgery, the healing process is also very important.
After the flexor tendon surgery, splinting is performed to protect the repaired structures and is used for 3-4 weeks. It is not possible to make immediate movements after removing the plaster. Physical therapy is recommended while cast or after cast removal. Physical therapy should be started in the early period, otherwise, it becomes difficult to gain movements with each passing time.
