What are the symptoms of Dupuytrens Contractures?
Dupuytren’s disease is usually painless. The early signs of the disease include knuckle pads and palmar nodules. As the proliferation progresses it leads to joint contractures. The fingers most commonly affected are the ring and small fingers. The joints most commonly affected are the metacarpophalangeal and the interphalangeal joints. Prolonged joint contractures will lead to contractures of the skin, tendons, and ligaments around the affected joints.
