What Could Be The Risks For Not Undergoing A Surgery After Finger Fracture?

Hello,

I need a second opinion.. While playing I broke my finger and there is a fracture. the hand specialist is suggesting a surgery > I want to know the future risks of not going in for surgery. Per doctor, the fracture might heal.. however the joints have been moved(sorry dont remember the actual term). Please suggest!

Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

I have studied your case with diligence

If there is fracture displacement then surgery is required.
I can help you better if you can attach x ray film and send to me directly.

You may need to take decision early to avoid further stiffness.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
