The little finger caudal joint is the common name for the end joint of the little finger, and a ruptured extensor tendon of the little finger end joint usually recovers well.
A rupture of the extensor tendon of the little finger terminal joint can usually be recovered through regular treatment, and the recovery methods include surgical repair treatment and necessary functional exercises.
First of all, it is necessary to suture both ends of the ruptured tendon through surgical repair treatment, and after the surgery, a cast is given to immobilize the tendon by braking, and the cast is usually removed after the tendon has healed in 3~4 weeks.
Because of the scars on the damaged part of the tendon after the surgery, the function of the little finger joint should be affected. Under the guidance of the doctor, timely and correct functional exercises should be carried out, such as flexion and extension of the little finger.
Rupture of the extensor tendon of the little finger joint should go to the regular hospital in time, and the doctor will give the correct treatment and functional exercise instruction according to the specific condition and recovery situation.
