Hope you recovered.

YEARS I've had this stubborn stiffness and pressure that was driving me insane and an 8-minute video cured it... amazing. Thank you so much!

Just perfect for me. Thank you Michelle!!! I have been in a wasteland with my top rated HMO in dealing with my badly sprained dominant hand pinky for almost 8 months. All the people I have dealt with there are obviously burned out. Your videos are the dawn after a nightmarish night.

This was awesome. Totally worked. I’ve been having stiff fingers when I wake up lately and this totally helped. Thanks 🙏

Thankfully I have to say these excercises really help to reduce pain.❤

1 2 3 did the exercises along with you - I felt relief after The stiffness in my trigger finger started a few days ago out of the blue I had Mohs Surgery on top of the effected hand the stiffness is on, the skin is tight on top of that hand at times

I've had pain in my fingers for months and tried different stretches but after doing this video it felt slightly better so I'll make sure to keep doing this. THANK YOU

Thank you so much. I have tried many medications and exercises to reduce stiffness but nothing helped much. It gave instant relief to my stiff hands.

Thank you so much for sharing, for sure I will do that every day as much as I can..God Bless

Hello Michelle. I don't even know what to say, this is such a lifesaver. I have been praying and waiting on the Lord for my healing and I know that He is my healer! It is also good to do therapy and I do not use insurance and I do not have extra funds for this type of specific therapy. I am thrilled to have found your videos. I injured my pinky finger three and a half months ago and then reinjured it twice since then. ..just being a busy busy hard working mom. I basically banged it really hard, then I really did not take care of it and then banged it really hard since then, twice. then one day when I was cleaning an Airbnb, I dropped a plate on it. I did not ice it and I just finished doing all of the cleaning at the Airbnb. So I have been beside myself, worried and in tears, feeling like I will never be able to use my hand again. I have been trusting the Lord and declaring healing over myself. God's Word says that by His strips we are healed, and it is true. He is healing me! I appreciate your free videos more than you know!! Thank you so very much!!! May God Bless you Michelle for all of your precious giving!

Definitely feel more mobile! Thank you!❤

your videos have really been helping my PIP strain i got from work i am a dog groomer and my finger was mangled in a collar and its been so rough the past couple months but by watching your videos the past week ive seen progress!!

I’ve only had my stitches out for 2 days, I did these excercises and I can touch all my fingertips together now, im going to continue this all day

I've had gout issues in my hands and had a bad attack in my left hand over two years ago. I've tried all kind of things. My index finger doesn't have much range of motion at all. I'm mainly a bass player and it doesn't affect that so much. I do play a little bit of guitar and I'm having trouble playing a couple basic chords that I didn't have trouble playing before. I did the exercises on that finger and I'm feeling clicking in there now. I have a feeling this is going to work and I will continuously do the exercises. I do want to thank you very much. I can do most things but it really bothers me that those couple basic chords I can't play well anymore. Anyway I will try to keep you posted. Thanks again. Happy new year.

Your step by step excercise from BIP to PIP and then the hook fist is very helpful. Now it help me to start gradually and less stress to the joint and nuckles are less painful instead of starting to close the injury hand into fist immediately from the start of the excercise routine.

Great video. These exercises already help. I know a lot of people who would love to see a video on how to recovery from pulley injuries that often happen to rock climbers. There are already some videos on this but you have a really nice presentation style and are incredibly knowledgeable about the specifics of fingers. I have a pulley injury on my index finger (a mild strain, just irritated, nothing requiring surgery) but is taking a really long time to go away. I would love to hear your suggestions for how to rehab this. There are a LOT of rock climbers who would be very interested I'm sure. Thank you for your videos. They're great.

Same issues vd me m RA patient

Hello, I'm 13 and about 2 weeks ago when I was training jiu jitsu, a little accident happened and my ring finger on my left got dislocated. My coach who used to do nursing attempted to relocate my finger. And well, it was better, not too twisted up anymore, just very slightly. Then later going back home, my finger was swelling up like crazy. I could barely move it, it just hurt. My 2 coaches said I didn't need to go to a doctor and to just have it heal by itself. The next day, I splinted my finger up, with a popsicle stick and an old stretchy sock. I had it splinted for just about a day. It was hard to straighten the finger but I managed to do it. Then after a few days my finger seemed like it was starting to get better. And now it's been about 2 weeks, my finger has gained quite a lot of its mobility and strength back, and I can effortlessly straighten the finger now. Only thing is, it's just still bruised quite a bit and I can't make a full fist yet. But I can nearly make a fist and fully bend the ring finger. So I'm just asking, in how long would you say I could start training again? Could I start training again with my finger taped up? And in how long would it fully heal without needing to go to a doctor? Thank you!

Thank you so much madambig help for me

I like the last one using your hood hand between the webs which blocks the MPs. My OT made a plastic splint but it hurt my MPs where the K wires were. This doesn’t hurt my MPs and actually holds them from not bending better.

Great video thank you ! :) question : with stiff fingers, during sleep at night, how should hand be placed ? sleeping with fist, or dangling loose fingers, or... ?

Thank you for this video! when you are not doing the exercises, are you supposed to put your splint back on for the rest of the day/ night?

Thank you! My finger stiffness does feel better after following these exercises. Any supplements that you could recommend? Could it be gout in my middle finger? Stiffness and swelling in my middle finger PIP joint.

Great exercises. I broke my middle finger. I couldn’t move it for 3 months! Thank you for these amazing exercises.💖

Thank you, I hope so. So far the only way to make this easier is to use damp hand socks and heat. I worked with a temp agency since 2019 so I didn't have insurance, so when I fell on 6/27/21 and broke it, I couldn't get the care I needed until insurance kicked in. So my fingers haven't been bent since end of June. Surgeon had to re-break my wrist, got 2 clips inserted, bone graph and plate. I'm glad I found your channel, I only had so far 1 hand therapy session. More on the way. My hope is back. Hand therapy is awesome, painful and so necessary. My hand therapist is a very nice gentleman, he says, this might hurt but it gets better :)

I've been a follower of this channel for a few months and found some of the execr-ized useful for regaining hand mobiltiy. I broke my wrist and required surgery. In the accident my median nerve was damaged. I've had physical therapy and have regained full mobility of my hand. I can make a natural quick tight strong fist. But because I'm getting bad feedback from my fingers it feels as if I'm stiff even when I'm not bending those two fingers or my thumb. As I'm slowly regaining sensation the sensation if stiffness is decreasing. My conclusion is that median nerve damage can be mistaken for joint stiffness. Faulty proprioception and lack of fine sensation can be mistaken for loss of mobility if you aren't looking at the hand as you use it. Peripheral neuropathy can have the same effect. My point is that exercises need to be matched to actual needs and the person who has a problem may not be able to identify exactly what the problem is. imo That is why an evaluation by a PTs isn't just useful, but necessary.

How is your finger now?

Are these applicable even when in the case of a burned injury ??

I used splint for about six weeks for mallet finger on the ring finger and stopped its use as advised by the doctor. Even though the index and the middle fingers were affected. I can now make a fist but when I leave the finger for about 30mins without stretching them, e.g. when I sleep and wake up, the 3 fingers become stiff again until I exercise them before they become flexible again. What can be done to make them permanently flexible with out getting stiff again. Waiting for your prompt response. Thanks
