Surgery done of left ring finger
Dear sirs
I met an accident day before yesterday .
And my left ring finger bone fractured.
So yesterday dressing was done . Lot of blood lost.
And bone part is missing not found.
So doctor suggested an surgery with insertion of two 1 mm stainless steel k wire.
Both are inserted on joints
I have attached both pics.
How much good is surgery done.
He took about 1 and half hour.
But he said movement will be lot compromised.
He coverd 2 handspan portion of hand in soft plaster .
What you think are these joints joined well or can be improved more.
After 7 days this plaster will be removed and hard plaster on finger will be casted.

No one is here to judge anyone’s surgery . It’s done properly .
Injury itself is bad ( there seems bone loss and open fracture ) so movements will depend on physiotherapy and soft tissue healing .
