Again thank you for your quick response, I am currently waiting got hear from the doctor about getting another gangling block I was wondering if anyone else is wearing a compress glove to keep the inflammation down. My fingers and hand have been so swollen since I broke my arm I can not bend the fingers to make a fist. I have had improvement but slow going. My thumb is working as well as my pinky but the other three fingers feel dead. The cortisone shot seemed to help in relieving some swelling in the hand but not the fingers. Does every else deal with inflammation ??????
