Climbing Injuries - Tell me what you have! 27-Feb-2020 At 9:22:25 AM harold

I hadn't been able to straighten my ring finger for years, or even wear my wedding ring until last year it randomly fixed itself. I'd even had my name down on the waiting list to see a surgeon for almost two years. Didn't effect my climbing too much except for when a big jug pressed into the lump (ouch) or large slopers. Had a decent bit of bowstring across my palm.

Was surfing and when I pressed my palm down on the board to pop my feet, the Dupuytren contracture just snapped. Hurt a little bit (cold water had numbed my hand), but then looked at my hand and the bow string was gone and my fingers could fully straighten. Was a weird feeling. I didn't know it was possible but after looking through the Dupuytren website forum I see it's happened to a few other people. 10 months later it hasn't grown back at all, we'll see how long it lasts.
