Acronyms used??: DD, DC, NA, etc etc.. Huh?
It took me a while but figured DD = Dupuytren Disease, and DC = Dupuytren Contracture (?)
NA = Needle aponeurotomy & MCP = joint (pinky?) nearest the palm, DIP = joint furthest from palm, PIP = middle joint.
But not sure about others used..
Can the Forum owner please complete and make "acronyms used" a STICKY ? Thanks,
Bob K (too new to know all, and too tired to guess)

Except for the joints these are just colloquial acronyms we tend to throw around on the forum. The joints are standard, just try google or wikipedia. Any others we have not covered?
