Abstract

Stiff finger is a common condition found among the elder population due to various types of arthritis. In the younger age group, it occurs usually as a sequel of trauma. It is a difficult condition to treat and follow up. Patient cooperation and strict adherence to exercise routines are paramount for the success of the treatment of stiff fingers. The ideal treatment includes the release of the adhesions and active physiotherapy. However, because of the covid 19 crisis, the usual treatments for the various disease have been compromised due to lack of travel, transport, the need to maintain social distancing, etc. We devised our own splint management for stiff fingers and found it too useful.
