I have been doing therapy. I am gaining a lot of mobility in this arm. I still cannot do much with it but have more mobility than I have had in a long time. Exercises all involve stretching tendons & moving the hand and wrist. I am 3 weeks into therapy and the Dr. said 8-12 weeks of therapy. The pictures above show the exercises I am working on. Once an hour, I do a series of exercises. I have been using the new connections and the therapist exclaimed about what a great job Dr. M. did. Streightening out my fingers and thumb is the motion I had lost and you can see in the pictures how that works. You can also see how the splint has been cut down to allow more movement.
