Has either simvastatin or lisinopril been implicated?
I started noticing Dupuytren's in both hands several months after starting simvastatin and lisinopril. I have heard that statins (including simvastatin) can be "toxic to connective tissue."
Bubber, age 60.

Statins can damage muscle tissue not connective tissue. Mechanism is undrestood and wouldn't apply to Dupuytren's
