I had the endoscopic CT releases done a couple years ago and I find the stiffness and discomfirt getting WORSE!!!! Anyone else have this happen? I had a plastic surgeon do the surgery so now the hand specialist I'm going to is sending me to a Rheumatism doc????

HELP??? I'm afraid I'll not beable to move my hands one day?????

I find that the mornings are the worst, it's like they have to loosen up??? If I paint or do any housework that involves using pressure, like scrubbing a window it's much worse.

Hi there,

just reading your post about your hand going stiff and being worried about one day not being able to move it, well it is just how my hand is if I put pressure on it then it cramps up and my fingers also lock in V shape as well, does yours? and its getting a lot worst as the months go on, the only differents is I have ulnar nerve damage and muscle waste due to it as well, I had one opperation back in April but its not worked so I'm just waiting to hear to go and have another NCT done then I think they are going to try again I just hope its not too long, I have already had to sell my little business cos I'm unable to work with it.
may be you need to go back to your doctor as you may have some scar tissue from your last opp

anyway all the best my friend

Regards Nigel
