My left hand is at Stage I (30 degrees) - My right hand is at Stage N (Nodules and/or cords)

Possible ideas for difference?

I was just thinking about what activities I use my left hand more than my right.
I don't play ball sports, but row on the water using two oars (sculling) - so equal use.
I don't hand write much. I text with my right hand.

What is the one activity different from the right hand?

My left hand has hovered over a traditional computer mouse for many hours over the years.
In that position the little finger is more bent than all the other fingers.

Any views?

I would assume that the probability to trigger further disease will depend on the amount of trauma, i.e. the size of the wound. Therefore the minimal-invasive methods might be less risky than classical hand surgery.

I think any abnormal experience of a hand could trigger a Dupuytren's reaction if the DNA is there. That is why injury, surgery and other things seem to correlate. It could actually go further with NA and/or xiaflex also being a trigger.
