Doing one thing to your fingers can add 30 years to your life

Fingers are one of the essential "devices" of our body. We will find that no matter what we do, we have to use our hands. So what are the benefits of massaging your hands more often? Let me explain it to you below, you can try it!

The doctor tells you: Finger exercises help recovery

People with severe hand injuries generally need to go to the hospital for treatment and have the affected finger immobilized to allow the injured finger to rest and facilitate wound healing. The affected finger is generally immobilized with a splint or plaster. The duration of immobilization should be determined according to the injury, such as two weeks for simple skin injury, three weeks for tendon and joint capsule injury, four weeks after suture of nerve injury, and five to six weeks for fracture fixation.

It should be noted that

After the fixation is removed, functional exercises of the hand should be actively performed; if it is a complex injury, professional guidance should be provided by a rehabilitation doctor to help the finger function recover as soon as possible. The method of self-health finger exercise is as follows:

1. Flex and straighten your fingers, open your thumb and make a fist with your fingers, repeat 5 to 10 times.

2. Place the pad and tip of your thumb against the pads, tips and bases of other fingers respectively. Repeat each part 5 to 10 times.

3. Stretch out your fingers, completely separate and open them, then merge them together, and repeat 5 to 10 times.

4. The tips of your thumb and index finger should form an "O" shape and a "▽" shape respectively. Repeat 5 to 10 times.
