1, unarmed exercise

You can do active fist-clenching and finger-stretching exercises, with the middle finger as the center and the fingers abduction and adduction, and with the thumb as the center. In the movement of interphalangeal joint, the thumb of the healthy hand can be pressed on the back of the affected finger, and the second and third fingers of the healthy side can be placed on the palm of the affected finger to fix the proximal interphalangeal joint, so that the distal joint of the interphalangeal joint can be exercised more effectively and actively. You can also passively bend and stretch the affected hand with healthy fingers.

Step 2 exercise with something

Simple objects can be used to assist exercise, so as to increase the interest and effect of patients during exercise. If you use a board with a suitable width and hold it in the palm of your hand to control the metacarpophalangeal joints of fingers such as thumb, it is more convenient for the interphalangeal joints to do flexion and extension; Knead the ball to increase grip strength; Knead walnuts, table tennis or fitness balls to exercise finger flexion and extension, abduction, adduction and coordinated movement; Clamping thin wooden boards to exercise interosseous muscles. These are simple and effective functional exercise methods.
