Dupuytren’s Contracture Treatment in Surrey, B.C.
Dupuytren’s Contracture Treatment in Surrey, B.C.
Dupuytren’s disease is a condition that affects the connective tissue beneath the skin of the palm and fingers. Over time, this tissue thickens and tightens, gradually pulling one or more fingers toward the palm. As the condition progresses, it can make everyday tasks such as gripping objects, shaking hands, or placing the hand flat on a surface more difficult.
The condition often begins as a firm lump or nodule in the palm. As it develops, thick cord-like bands may form beneath the skin and extend into the fingers or thumb. While the nodules may occasionally feel itchy, Dupuytren’s disease is typically painless and develops slowly over many years. At PSG, our board-certified plastic surgeons provide individualized treatment options designed to restore finger mobility and improve hand function when the condition begins to interfere with daily activities.
Testimonials Words From Our Patients
Dupuytren’s Contracture Treatment
Treatment is typically not required in the early stages of Dupuytren’s disease if finger movement remains normal. Stretching or massage does not appear to slow the progression of the condition.When the tightening of the tissue begins to significantly limit finger movement, surgical treatment may be recommended to improve hand function.
