Brief Summary:
this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of extracorporeal shock wave therapy on ultrasonography chnges In patients with palmar fibromatosis
Detailed Description:
Palmar fibromatosis, also known as Dupuytren's contracture, is a condition that affects the hand and fingers. It is characterized by the thickening and tightening of the fascia, a layer of connective tissue beneath the skin of the palm. This thickening and tightening can lead to the formation of nodules or cords that restrict the movement of the affected fingers. The treatment options for palmar fibromatosis vary depending on the severity of the condition and its impact on hand function. Mild cases may not require immediate treatment but should be regularly monitored. However, if the symptoms worsen or hinder hand function, there are several treatment options available. Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) is a non-invasive physical therapy procedure that uses high-energy sound waves to treat various musculoskeletal conditions. It is commonly used to manage pain and promote healing in conditions such as plantar fasciitis, tendinitis, calcific tendinitis, and other similar disorders The ESWT has shown promising results in reducing pain, improving function, and promoting healing in various musculoskeletal conditions. sixty patients with palmar fibromatosis will be assigned randomly to two groups; first one will receive extracorporeal shock wave with traditional therapy and the other one will receive traditional therapy only
