Opinions needed
Hi I’ve noticed some strange things with my hand and everything I look at makes me think it may be Dupuytren. I will be calling my doctor but was hoping to get opinions. It is hard to get a good angle but I have a nodule below my middle finger and feels like another forming below my ring finger. The first thing I noticed was what I thought was my tendon protruding. The nodule has definitely gotten bigger over the last week or so. I tried to mark on the picture the areas I am talking about.
Thanks! Oh I’m 50 years old and female.

Re: Opinions needed
Hi
Possibly the start of Dupuytrens. A doctor or hand specialist should confirm. Read about the options for early treatment but start by noting symptoms and any changes or progression. Most people do not get a contracture, or progress slowly giving you time to plan and consult accordingly. Avoid the risk factors if applicable and possible and look after your hands when doing sports, diy, hobbies, etc

Best wishes SB
