Ulnar Drift

[SpokeyDokey]

Noticed that my right hand is curving in a bit - self-diagnosed as Ulnar Drift. Can't see what else it could be tbh.

Don't think it is RA as I have no swollen/hot joints.

Need to see the Dr for sure.

Anyone else have this?

Looks like not much for it but to wear a splint.

Good luck trying to see a doctor.

Get a referral, tell them you have medical insurance, pay £200 and see the consultant of your choice.

Tell Consultant you will be having any future treatment on NHS.

I did this for a full Knee replacement a couple of years ago, I know Covid may throw a spanner in the works but worth considering.

Make sure the Consultant also has an NHS practice though

Yes, good call.

I had knee work previously so knew him but if unsure check first.

Is anyone suffering from Ulnar Drift on here.

Nice to get the above replies but they aren't really what I was looking for.
