Cole.Hill Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Hello, Looking for a physician that specializes in soft tissue damage. Any recommendations in the Seattle area appreciated. I was indoor bouldering recently and heard an audible crunch/pop from knuckle on my left middle finger. Loud enough for spotter to ask if the hold had cracked. My finger is now slightly discolored at the palm and swollen with limited mobility. Thanks, Cole. Quote
iluka Posted September 29, 2009 Posted September 29, 2009 Based on your description you may need an orthopod who specializes in hands rather than a "soft-tissue specialist." They deal with tendon and ligament injuries as well as bone problems. Quote
archenemy Posted September 30, 2009 Posted September 30, 2009 I have a friend who works for a hand specialist (surgeon). I emailed her to find out if your type of injury is something they deal with regularly. I'll get back to you once I hear from her. Take care. Quote
archenemy Posted October 1, 2009 Posted October 1, 2009 Here ya go... Dr. Mohktee, Dr. Keramati, and Dr. Kirchhoff handle most of the more complex hand injuries. Office number is 206-363-6947 and here is the link to the website: http://www.nwhand.com/ Quote
