    hey all!
    i got a hand injury when i was young. all other bruises are gone but only one scar on my middle finger joint is left. its not going. is there some surgery which can erase this scar?

    I've seen some ointments advertised here and there on TV to help lessen scars. Never tried any myself, though.

    Does it really bother you?

    You can try creams. However I will say that I know two people, one a close friend and one my boyfriend who both had massive had injuries as children. (friend caught his hand in a meat grinder and boyfriend fell through a window and actually cut his hand off his body) these are two people I see all the time, on a daily basis, that I've known for years and both of them had to tell me what happened before I even noticed they had scars. (and their hands are pretty messed up) I'd be willing to bet that no one even notices it.

    ok thanks for the great talk thankfully i am not one of those who is pissed off by my scars. i am pretty okay just wanted to know if there is a cure to that or not?
    i hope you might have provided me with some names of the cremes.
    u might guess as this is my hand so i am not reluctant to apply anything on it. as hopefully this will not effect my skin.

    have you tried those stretch mark creams? I know I've seen scar creams at the grocery store before even, so I'm assuming there are a few different kinds out there.

    Hi,
    MizzHealth
    It might possibly cost you your hand.
    I have no idea sorry.

    The field of study dealing with hand surgery involves both surgical and non-surgical treatment of problems related to the heart. The different cases which lead to hand surgery are

    Muscle Paralysis - it is the complete loss of muscle function and often affects a local area

    Dupuytren's Disease - certain portions of the hand may become dimpled and curvy which is a result of formation of scar tissue beneath the skin which later accumulates in a tissue. Often a hand surgery rectifies such a condition.
