as you can see, the swelling is gone...
although there will always be a thickening at the joint...
[scar tissue in the cartilage...]
this is as straight as it gets at this point...
too much time with the lateral bands constricted...
it may loosen up, or not...
only time will tell...
when I took this picture...
it wasn't too loose...
sometimes, I can make more of a fist...
but this is a big improvement...
if you look closely on the left of the knuckle...
you can see the beginnings of the scar...
it comes down, perpendicular to the knuckle...
cuts across it...
and then cuts down, perpendicular, again...
creating a large, sideways, elongated "Z"...
across the knuckle...
[it's hard to see unless you make the picture bigger...]
so there you have it...
the next 4-6 months will tell the tale...
