Question 1

I'm having trouble bending my left index finger after I had k wire surgery. It's been almost a year now since the surgery, and I'm starting to worry because the finger not only won't bend but also looks different. They used a k wire to connect two bones. What could be going wrong here? Should I be concerned about the shape being off? It's really bothering me and I'm not sure what to do next.

Accepted Answer

Considering your concerns after K-wire surgery, consult an orthopedic specialist or hand surgeon for personalized evaluation and guidance

Question 2

I'm really interested in this height increase surgery since I'm only 158 cm tall and want to grow taller. Can you tell me if it's safe and which doctor I should see for it? Also, at what age would it be safest and most effective for me? I'd appreciate your advice on this.

Accepted Answer

The total recommended lengthening is 2-3 inches (5-8 cm) in the thigh bone (femur). Lengthening more than 3 inches in one bone is associated with higher complication rates, and our doctors put patient safety first

Question 3

I'm really worried about my cuboid bone fracture. How long do you think it'll take until I can get back to my usual daily activities? Are there any special precautions I should be aware of during the healing process? And I would love to know what treatments would work best for this situation.

My engagement is coming up soon and I just got my reports do I really need surgery or is there a way to postpone it if possible? I'm a bit worried about the timing and recovery

YES, you can anytime
