Flexor tendon recovery.

Looking for recovery experiences after jersey finger (Zone 1 FDP repair)

Hi — not looking for medical advice, just recovery stories.

I had a 14 days delayed Zone 1 FDP repair (pinky) along with pulley reconstruction and recently started rehab. I’m seeing a little movement at the middle joint but nothing at the fingertip so far.

For those who’ve had similar injuries:

* How long before DIP (tip) movement started?

* When did functional bending return?

Looking for recovery experiences after jersey finger (Zone 1 FDP repair)

Hi — not looking for medical advice, just real recovery stories.

I had a delayed Zone 1 FDP repair (pinky) and recently started rehab. I’m seeing a little movement at the middle joint but very little at the fingertip so far.

For those who’ve had similar injuries:

* How long before DIP (tip) movement started?

* Did the tip lag behind early on?

* When did functional bending return?

Thanks in advance for anyone willing to share their experience!!
