Dupuytren's Contracture Symptoms
The symptoms of Dupuytren's Contracture include tightening of the Palmaris Longus fascia on the pal of the hand where it attaches to the base MP joints of the fingers, causing the fingers to curl downward into the palm of the hand. Dupuytren's severely depletes the functional capacity of the fingers / hand which results in pain. Dupuytren's Contracture is a thickening and shrinking of the layer of Fascia just beneath the underlying skin layer of the palm that ends up pulling on the skin and on the fingers. This disorder can cause the formation of lumps or dimples in the skin of the palm due to the tightening of the fascia, causing the fingers to bend downward into a flexed position at the MP, PIP and/or DIP joints. Note: Dupuytren's is often confused with Trigger Finger but involves a different process. ( See Trigger Finger ) FLEXTEND® - RESTORE™ helps reduce the continued degradation od he disorder and severity of the symptoms associate with Dupuytren's Contracture by stretching and lengthening the overly tight, restrictive fascia of the palm of the hand. Lengthening the fascia and underlying muscles allows the fingers to open by increasing extension and abduction. FLEXTEND® stretches the restricted tissues, but also simultaneously strengthens the antagonist muscles which helps maintain the length created from stretching the fascia and underlying muscles that cover the palm of the hand.
