surgery review, needle job on Dupuytren's 9-Nov-2016 At 10:47:41 AM johnpitcairn

Bugger indeed.

Mine *seem* to grow in bursts, with a growth stage triggered by repeated trauma on that area. In the past it's been guitar playing or use of tools, but for the one that turned up about 2 years ago I'm pretty sure it was poor technique with walking poles.

After they pop up, they quite often settle down and don't grow much for a while. I start to think about surgery when they are pulling the finger inward, or really consistently uncomfortable. Still haven't had the 3rd surgery, but the ones on my right hand index and middle fingers are getting annoying. For mine, looks like anywhere from 5-12 years seems to be the timeframe.

Climbing doesn't seem to be much of a factor, I climb mostly on the first 2 finger joints anyway.

Anecdotally, cut down on the booze if that's your thing. Stretching your fingers back will help slow the pulling in.
