The child was already more than three years old when he came in, and as soon as he entered the clinic, he put his hands up on the table, his movements were very skillful and well-behaved. Although he didn’t say anything, this set of actions was really heartbreaking, and I think the child had been to many hospitals before that. The child’s hand is short-fingered and has merged fingers, so I let him grasp my hand in order to check the function of the fingers. But he was too gentle, so he was very gentle when he grabbed my hand, and it was only after some encouragement that he dared to grab it harder. The mother blamed herself for many years when she talked about why the child had short fingers and parallel fingers. The mother blamed herself and said that she didn’t know she was pregnant when she was pregnant, so she took some cold medicine by mistake, and she didn’t know if that was the cause. In fact, mothers do not need to give themselves too much psychological burden, because there are many factors that lead to child deformity, maternal health during pregnancy is only one of them, in addition to genetics and external environmental stimuli can also lead to child deformity after birth. Since the child is already deformed, we recommend that parents take the child with them to face the matter positively, actively seek professional medical help, and improve the child’s hand function through surgical correction as much as possible. Other children have surgery at a few months, is it too late for my child? In addition to the cause of the deformity, the parents were also very concerned about the timing of the surgery. When he came over, he saw many babies outside my clinic, and most of these babies were a few months old, while their child was now over three years old, and they were afraid that it would be too late for surgery. They had been advised by doctors before to schedule their children for surgery as early as possible, but the parents were reluctant to let their children have the surgery because they were concerned that they were too young to speak and were afraid that they would not be able to express their feelings well. But now that they see so many younger babies having the surgery, they are afraid that it is not too late. We can understand the parents’ feelings, they are all heartbroken for their children. But in fact, as long as the child is healthy, has no other diseases, and weighs 6gk, surgery is usually possible at six months. Early surgery can help the child better establish finger body function and the post-operative scar problem will be better compared to older children. So, is it too late for surgery? We think it is not too late to operate as soon as the parents and the child are willing to do so. It is very meaningful for the child to have a certain degree of release and improvement of finger function after surgery.
