[@patriciaainger1908]

I have been told you have to get movement in the shoulder first before the hand will move. Is that wrong? Your way makes more sense.

[@hemasookram4655]

Any sort of exertion with my arm or wrist cause s my fingers to tighten. Other than that my fingers are pretty flexible. Is there anything I can do.

[@PostStrokeOrg]

@hemasookram, It's hard to say exactly because I don't know your specific case. But sometimes that can be caused by spasticity, high muscle tone, tendon shortening. It's hard to say, exactly. If it's cause by muscle tone or spasticity, a daily stretching routine can be helpful to reduce the effects. If it's tendon shortening, that would be a conversation to have with your doctor. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful ❤️

@@PostStrokeOrg I haven’t seen a dr since this happened almost two years ago. Hospitals here in Trinidad are bad. Becaof u I have come so far. Rehab in the hospital opened up again 6 months ago. No phone call yet. And if they do call it’s one visit a week
