How to Determine Finger Muscle Tendon Adhesion?

Finger tendon adhesion mostly occurs on the palm side and can be diagnosed through clinical symptoms, physical examination, ultrasound, and other methods.

1. Clinical Symptoms: After finger tendon adhesion, there are usually obvious clinical discomforts, mainly including local joint pain, stiffness, and skin swelling. As the condition progresses, some patients may experience finger joint movement disorders, being unable to rotate their fingers freely with limited range of motion.

2. Physical Examination: During the physical examination, the doctor can perform a palpation to touch the finger joints for tenderness, judge whether the joints are stiff, and make a preliminary diagnosis of finger tendon adhesion.

3. Ultrasound Examination: This is a commonly used method for diagnosing finger tendon adhesion, allowing for quick, convenient, and noninvasive examination of the tendons. This examination can clearly observe the integrity and continuity of the tendons, aiding in early detection and subsequent treatment of the disease. Combined with X-ray examination, MRI, and other examination methods, early diagnosis of the condition and judgment of whether there are fractures can be made, thereby formulating appropriate treatment measures.
