Swan Deformity

Do you know what is swan deformity? It is a disease that can affect one finger or all your fingers. It causes the different joints in your finger to bend different ways, forming an “S” shape. Injuries and diseases that damage tendons and ligaments in your fingers can cause it. I am writing this, because today, I search from the internet, found that one of my favorite idol band, also world's desirable sensation who is coming back next year, BTS's member, Jin, suffering from this illness. I was so shocked after I looked at it. So pity of him. To refrain own self  from swan deformity, address underlying conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, cerebral palsy, or stroke. Hand therapy is needed to help correct imbalances through exercises like passive stretching and joint mobilization to improve alignment and function. Proper posture and movement are compulsory to reduce stress on the hand and finger joints. Splint to prevent hyperextension at the PIP (proximal interphalangeal) joint while allowing full flexion. If more crucial, go for surgery to correct the imbalance in the extensor mechanism of the finger. Together, let's give some empathy for swan deformity patients. Thank you.
