Physiotherapy for hand stiffness in Delhi.
Problems that affect these structures can result in stiffness. Various types of arthritis can distort the contour of a joint, altering its geometry so that it can’t move normally. Fractures can also distort the smooth surface of a joint. Fractures that aren’t even in the joint can cause adherence of nearby structures, such as tendons and muscles. Scarring at the site of fracture healing can tether these structures and limit their motion, resulting in stiffness. Dislocations and even bad sprains can injure the ligaments and capsule, causing them to become thicker and less elastic with consequent loss of mobility. Tendon and muscle injuries can also cause them to get scarred down to their surroundings and thus lose some of their usual mobility, resulting in stiffness.
