Patient's question:
Hello doctor, the child in my family has extra fingers, can his fingers still be operated on in this condition?Doctor's answer:
For children, the earlier the surgery, the smaller the scar and the easier the recovery. But now the child is too young, and postoperative care might be quite challenging. Moreover, it is necessary to check the relationship between the extra finger and the other fingers. If there is no relationship, the surgery can be performed as early as possible around the age of two. It is recommended to first pay attention to dietary regulation, avoiding spicy, stimulating, and cold foods. It is advised to seek treatment promptly.
