Thais a lot for your answer, I’ll try. Although I suppose the nodules should hurt, which is not my case for now, or would it be better to do it now that it dose’s hurt? I have to have an operation to take the metal away from my ankle ( the one with no nodules) in octubre.

My own personal opinion is that if the nodules are not causing you problems at the moment, in the activities that you do, and can be managed 'conservatively' then hold off on seeking RT. However you could have this discussion perhaps via an online email or video consultation with an experienced RT consultant such as someone like Professor Seegenschmiedt.

My opinion, and it is not more worth than Spanish Buddhas, is that an early RT can possibly stop or slow down further growth. The earlier you catch a nodule with RT the more efficient is RT. So why not do it now - provided the nodule is active, i.e. growing? If it is stable/dormant, then why treat it?

I myself had all my Dupuytren's nodules (7 alltogether) treated with RT and it worked for all, except 1. I am happy I had RT.
