Hi everyone.
I had surgery in late September to correct a fairly severe contracture on my right ring and baby finger. The surgery went well, no complications, and I have been working with an OT for the last month or so to regain function. However, I have noticed from the beginning that my wrist is really not responding very well. It almost feels like a severe sprain or chronic tendinitis. The therapist has mentioned that the scar tissue that we are trying to break up is preventing the tendons from sliding properly and that could be affecting them, but I don't seem to be noticing any improvement! It's extremely aggravating as I'm an active person (weight training, bike riding, etc), and I can't seem to feel any reasonable hope that these tendons will become strong again. It's very worrying. I will be seeing the doctor again this week to discuss.
Has anyone here experiences issues with weak or irritated tendons affecting wrist function? If so, what type(s) of therapy worked best to alleviate this problem, and how long was it before you felt reasonably functional?
Thank so much. I am getting a little desperate here!

Thank you so much for the response, I sincerely appreciate it. I will be speaking to the surgeon to see what else can be effective, perhaps some form of therapeutic massage and additional exercises. I guess the frustration is just something that comes with the territory. I know academically that it will heal and I will get past this, but at the moment, emotionally, it's difficult to see it!
Thanks again.
