Can swan neck deformality in fingers be corrected or cured by wearing oval- 8 slpint ring product ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
see details: This splint can help to correct the deformity and improve function of the finger but it only helps during the time you wear it. It cures nothing. Once you take it off, the deformity returns.
