Had surgery in March... severed APB, severed radial collateral ligament, damage to the synovial saddle and carpometacarpal joint..
Anyhoo.. finished physio about two weeks ago and been allowed to use my hand 'normally' again.. but last week I started to get an increase in the pain at the joint and stiffening.
I'm a bit worried I might have done something to it.. and tbh I'm a bit scared to confess this to the unit at Hospital because they'll bliddy kill me if I've buggered it so soon.. The consultant did say it could be painful for up to a year after surgery but it wasn't too bad and seems to be going backwards if anything. Is that normal..
