There is no optimal treatment for finger flexor tendon rupture. Clinical treatment is generally comprehensive, such as surgical repair, medication and rehabilitation.
1. Surgical repair: Finger flexor tendon rupture is a more serious injury, which has already produced structural changes, and needs to be repaired through surgical methods for local tendons, such as tendon reconstruction surgery or tendon suture surgery.
2. Medication: After surgical repair of the flexor tendon, early attention should be paid to the braking and resting, if the pain and swelling are more obvious, anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications can be taken under the guidance of the doctor, such as ibuprofen, celecoxib and so on.
3. Rehabilitation therapy: In the process of repairing the finger flexor tendon after surgery, physical factor therapy, such as magnetic heat therapy and intermediate frequency electrical stimulation can help to relieve the symptoms. In the later stage, it is necessary to carry out motor function exercise step by step to prevent local soft tissue adhesion, otherwise it will easily affect the range of motion of the finger joints.
Before the finger flexor tendon has fully recovered, it is not possible to move the localized finger joints too early, otherwise it will easily lead to aggravation of the symptoms or even cause re-injury. Finger flexor tendon injuries need to be treated under the guidance of a professional orthopedic surgeon.
