How Long Does It Take For Complete Moment Of Finger After Surgery For Laceration?
I had a deep laceration of my index finger about 1 month and half ago. I underwent surgery to repair the damaged nerve and was immobilized for 2 weeks. My finger is healing fine now but is very stiff and is not straight anymore. I know I haven t damaged the ligament so I guessing it is the scar tissue that is making my finger very stiff. How long will it take for my finger to have better motion?
