572547 tn?1218924130 First, I understand your frustration. Before I found out what my first trigger finger was, I was fully prepared to request amputation because it was making my entire hand useless. I've had 3 surgeries over the past 2 years, freeing 4 fingers and removing a ganglion cyst from one. Did your surgeon send you to physical therapy? You need to keep moving your hands and fingers, despite the pain. Scar tissue (adhesions) starts to form a couple of months out from the surgery.
Avatar n tn Several years ago I was indirectly struck by lightning on my finger. Ever since I have had severe nerve pain. Cold is simply unbearable let alone if I hit my finger on anything. I have been to several doctors and NO one can help me. I have even attempted accupuncture to no avail. I am currenty taking Lyrica, which helps a little, but not much. I have tried topicals as well. I am to the point where I just want my finger amputated. The pain is just too much!! Any suggestions?
Avatar m tn Hi I have a foot problem, it started before Halloween, it's Nov 24 now. It started with a blister from my shoe… the toe was a few days later. I was scratching a snag on my cuticle… 3 days later I noticed a big blister. My doctors gave me Clindamycin but it hasn't helped me much. here are some pictures of my foot. Please help me. I also have a skin condition called "incontinentia pigmenti", an x linked dominant chromosome disorder, but I don't know if it is related.
1013758 tn?1251287084 Its also is very red. Is there anyone that could look at the pictures and tell us what they think. We hear about MSRA and don't know what it looks like or what it is. We cant get him to go back to the doctor because he's a alcoholic and is afraid that they will tell him to stop drinking or put him in a place where he can't drink and smoke. Thanks to any help anyone could give us!!

Avatar m tn I have been diagnosed with herpes whitlow in my right ring finger...it is a very insidius disease as it is prone to secondary infections and is very costly due to loss of work and topical and oral treatments.Today I start suppression therapy on Valtrex and Zovirax cream if needed.In the last two years I've had at least ten outbreaks and it is really getting me down. Is there any new treatments being researched for this disease?
280418 tn?1306325910 How is your husbands' finger? I also had a glomus tumor on my left ring finger just under the nail bed. I had it removed by surgery and it has now grown back. I was told that this tumor is very had to get completely since it is made up of a bundle of nerves and that there was a possibility that is could grow back. It is now more painful than ever. I bumped it just this weekend on a drawer handle and almost lost it.
Avatar n tn Hello! I hope you get a reply for I am going through the same thing with my 70+ yr old Dad! Told he won't live through amputation so he said don't bother but the gangrene in one area is spreading so quickly! Other areas are dry but I am thinking this is wet! It is getting worse everyday! He has dry gangrene that hasn't changed at all! Hospice is involved now....the Hospice nurse hasn't given you any idea? I am told that sepsis is a possibility....

Avatar f tn I am looking to find a t-shirt that will fit my dog following a front leg amputation. The sites I've found don't have sizes large enough for my dog, (a big Chesapeake, just under 100 lbs). Any ideas?
Avatar n tn I would say it would be a good idea to check it out, you may need a tetanus shot and it sounds like it is infected, put some OTC anti biotic cream on a band aid on it till you can get it checked out, Good Luck
Avatar f tn Hi, my chinchilla, Screetch, had an emergency amputation of his right hind leg approximately one week ago. He remained in vet care until three days after the surgery. He came home with antibiotics and needing to be force fed. My question is two fold. First, will i need to supplement "good" bacteria, to replace those destroyed by the antibiotics?
Avatar f tn My Dobe did have bone cancer, and it was very successfully treated with amputation and chemo. I was extremely fortunate to have had the majority of the treatment covered by the University of Tennesse through a grant. If I had not received this help, no doubt I could not have afforded the nearly $5000 treatments. Osteosarcoma (bone cancer) is nearly 100% fatal.
Avatar f tn We rescued a german shephard puppy that needed a right front leg amputation from the knee down. That was three months ago on Aug 17th. He is now 7 months old and the wound is still not healed. About 6 days after surgery the wound burst open, had aslight infection. We cleaned it up got him on atibiotics and the wound was left open to drain. The wound then ulcerated to pretty good size. It has slowly since granulated some but it's still wide open. The outside edges of skin are white and hard.
Avatar f tn Our dog has an amputation scheduled for her front right leg, due to bone cancer. She is 9 years old, but apart from the bum leg, she is very healthy and active, (the cancer has not affected her behavior, energy, or appetite- just her mobility with the one leg). My neighbor was shocked when I told her we have an amputation scheduled, (since my dog is older). Also the diagnosing Vet told me he would not recommend amputation of a front leg on a large dog.
Avatar m tn Went to see an oral surgeon 3 months ago about a problem that had nothing to do with the root amputation he did on a tooth in my mouth that was part of a fixed bridge. He said I had an infection and he suggested that a root amputation be performed. He removed bone and gum tissue an amputated the root. 3 months later it still aches in the area he worked on. Went back to see him he took new x-rays saw no infection and said he didn't know why it is still aching.
Avatar f tn For over a year now, I've had these weird growths? on the cuticles of my fingers. It started on the right little finger, and seems to have spread to 6/10 fingers. They aren't typically painful, but they are sensitive. Even now when pressing the shift button with my little finger, I can feel a little stab of pain. I would have immediately went to the doctor if I had health insurance, but I don't. If it helps, which I'm sure it may, I'm a 17 year old female.
Avatar f tn my gf was diagnosed today with a skin cancer under the pinky finer , under the nail. it has eat away at the bone and she is facing partial amputation....
Avatar n tn Please don't type in all Caps, that is akin to shouting on the Internet. You should get a second opinion from another doctor at another hospital. Its highly unusual to diagnose foot amputation one day after toes were amputated. Something is not right with this surgeon's diagnosis.
Avatar n tn Thank you for responding. but root amputation! I'm not gona lie that sounds scary! would you explain that a bit? Is it done out side of the mouth?
Avatar f tn Three days ago his bone with tumour (femur) fractured and now we are left with two options either rod insertion or amputation. With rod, chemotherapy wont be possible until the muscle heals properly. Along with that he has persistent high BP 165/110 high pulse 118 . On ECHO he has Little percardial effusion + hypokinesia with only 35% EJECTION FRACTION. We are only left with the option of amputation as the rod insertion will spread it further to other organs . Suggest me what should we do?
