Complications after basil joint thumb surgery

Posted , 1 user is following.

I had basil joint thumb surgery august 22 2022. it is now Dec 4th 2022. for the most part the thumb is doing well but i cannot make a fist as my 4 fingers are still very stiff. i do p.t. twice a week plus exercises at home. my therapist tells me its because of arthritis in my fingers and that it will get better. its discouraging. has anyone else experienced this??
