If it doesn't hurt, don't do anything as surgery is the worst thing for it and it will come raging back. If it does hurt to the point of not being able to walk on it, consider the hyaluronidase injections.
Sorry to see you are not feeling well. Right now I have a good day or two at the most. It's hard to get used to.

I've browsed the dupuytren-online website so I'm familiar with Ledderhose. At this point the fibroma itself doesn't bother my foot nearly as much as the PN symptoms. I also have a good fibroma in my hand which I'm sure will lead to a contraction one day. Lucky me huh?
