i was biten by a doeberman, 5 months ago
had 2 puncture wounds to the top of the hand
i've been to an orthopedic dr, he said 6 weeks of therapy, which i did, no relief from the pain and i had good range of motion
today i went to a plastic surgeon who specializes in hands, and he had no answers for me......here is a list of my complaints.
hand is very senstive to heat
numbness, tingling,
hurts to grip things holding a pencil is AWFUL
pushing open a door, hurts
dull ache up to my elbow
tightness in fingers
he's advice to me was to return back to my family dr and see if he thought going to a pain clinic would help
why do i still have all this symptons 5 months after being bitten????????
