bigpicture001: Stop saying rubbish. You dont even know what you are saying Ask those that are fellows of WACP or other bodies if they are called consultants or not. Just because you can type on your fone doesn't mean you are intellectually bright. Honestly your write-up shows you know nothing about the medical profession. |

It happens to my second born, always going for physiotherapy and I brought a small machine which we always use on the hand. He is using the hand, but it shows that something is wrong with the hand. 1 Like |

Proper assessment needed to be considered. History you gave is not enough. Is the baby able to lift the hand unaided? Any pain ? Swelling? Atrophy ? any history of birth via breech or CS or forceful impacts while carrying the baby ? However, A paedetrician will guide and help you but most importantly, A PHYSIOTHERAPIST will help the baby most than any health professionals. I have opined |

lovethchioma: Wow, so sorry to hear about your hand. But I believe you have adapted well without it. Kudos to you. I'm guessing your older than 10yrs definitely so a lot of time has passed. I'm not a physiotherapist but I don't know if EMS will still help. See s liscensed physiotherapist. All the best. |

deboski6: Now you just said you always go for physiotherapy just because perhaps you have taken more time to have seen a physiotherapist. The earlier the better , such injury is also dependent on chronicity or onset of injury. Although, you may not know earlier but I’m pretty sure If you have taken the baby to a physiotherapist, early intervention would have taken the baby to his/her habilitated state of health . Nevertheless, cooperate with yur Physio and you will enjoy it |

U need not see any neuro-surgeon, a physiotherapist will take care of it within some months, that's the only sure way |

lovethchioma: Dearest, I am a Physiotherapist and I’m pretty sure that hand can still function the way you want it if the result of any nerve conduction test or myography is still positive. Though it was a long time it happened but NEVER SAY NEVER |

all will be fine, she still has the soft bone, which is able to heal fast, then knowing this take her to a bone fixer(i do not really know their medical name),this people's specialty is to help in soothing the nerves and making the bones strong for fusion with the joints... And most of all prayer, without asking from God through the Lord Jesus Christ, you can get nothing. "Ask in his name, and you'll receive "... And surely your daughter would be whole. 1 Like |

oratorOdunayo1:Really? please tell me more about it. I already have lost all hope but I'd sincerely do anything to be able to use my left hand as I do my right hand. Note that I'm up-to 25years ... there's still hope right? nerve conduction test? how do I go about the test? |

Please the only two specialists are a good physiotherapist and a good paediatrician. He/ she has had what is referred to as erbs palsy. It is a type of brachial plexus injury. Another type due to birth injury is Klumpke's paralysis. It is only a physiotherapist that can differentiate this. Neither of these conditions resolve without proper and adequate physiotherapy. Please be guided. See a physiotherapist. Treatment starts from the day of injury. |

Rakiticbarca:I think pulling of the arm during childbirth could be more of klumpke paralysis than it is of erbs. |

HumbleBoy21:it may or may not, she should just see a physiotherapist, but I know an aeroplane splint must be used. |
