I saw a lady today who had a traumatic (L) index finger distal phalanx
amputation 7 weeks ago. She is still quite hypersensitive and is receiving
therapy for that. She has a wedding to attend out of state in one month and
wants a temporary prosthesis (essentially a nail to paint) before she
leaves. She plans on a definitive prosthesis after she returns from the
wedding. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
David
