Anyone had it? my right hand and fingersare moving to the right and I am considering having them straightened as they hurt, have anyone else had it done and was it worth it?

Hi,not had it done myself but a couple of months ago on here an artist called chalky was posting.He seemed to have success with the op.
No doubt others will be along shortly to help.

I have just looked up chalky and seen what he was saying about the op, his does seem to have worked. I had my toes straightened when I was 14 as they were really deformed and I couldn't wear normal shoes, my right hand is causing me a lot of probs now, and I am right handed, the pain is awful, I don't know whether the right elbow replacement is causing my hand to turn outwards, and my fingers are hardly moving, so I am considering having surgery. Was hoping the humira might have helped, but recently I am in agony, my shoulders are killing me, rheumatologist said they need replacing as well.... if I can get rid of the pain with some drugs, I will struggle I think, all too much and I hate ops.0
