To help restore movement of your fingers, each of the following exercises should be done regularly as directed by your physiotherapist. If any of these movements are stiff and limited, you can use your other hand to help improve the movement.
Bending and straightening fingers.
Bend from your knuckles, keeping fingers straight. Following this, perform the opposite movement. Keeping your knuckles straight, curl all your finger joints.
Touch your thumb pad to the tip of each finger and over to the base of your little finger.
Spread and close your fingers.
With the palm of your hand flat on the table, lift each finger individually off the table.
Any further questions, please contact your Physiotherapy Department.
