Hello all:

Great forum - I've spent some time reading posts over the last few days. As a hand surgeon, it's great to see the wide variety of perceptions and experiences people are having.

I've posted my first Dupuytren's video on YouTube here:

Check it out, leave comments; I take criticism and praise well!

I wanted to show patients what the shot was like if they'd never seen it before. The manipulation can sometimes take a bit of massaging and slow steady pressure, but it's satisfying when the cord ruptures (for surgeon and patient). As some of you have mentioned, I hope the treatment has a lasting effect - I explain this to patients ahead of time (that the cord may re-grow).

You can see my other patient education videos on my YouTube channel - subscribe, rate, and leave suggestions for future videos!

Wow! Thanks for posting this. Really shows how it works. Thinking about Xiaflex on my little finger. I think NA will work well on the rest of the cords.
