Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hi everyone I wonder if anybody has had surgery to remove a group of nodules from the elbow. If so, do you know how long recovery for this normally takes? I am a secretary and am concerned as to what period of time i will need to take off? Any information on the procedure itself, recovery and success in not returning would be gratefully received. Many thanks Sussann --------------------------------- Photos – NEW, now offering a quality print service from just 8p a photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 22, 2006 Report Share Posted March 22, 2006 A couple years ago I had nodules on my finger knuckles, they did not hurt and after several months they went away on their own. A couple days ago, I found a nodule on my elbow.....and then my new rheumy was examining it yesterday. Mine does not hurt or anythng......doc xrayed it...should they be removed? - In , Sussann Sandekvist <sussannsandekvist@...> wrote: > > Hi everyone > > I wonder if anybody has had surgery to remove a group of nodules from the elbow.

Guest guest Posted March 23, 2006 Report Share Posted March 23, 2006 Mine seems to think so, although they are causing me some problems and pain across the whole arm so maybe that is why (there are also gross looking). They have been there for quite some years now but have only really been giving me problems recently. If you have had some come and go maybe it it not necessary in your case. Am seeing Rheumy today so will try to get some further information. Thanks anyway Sussann dreamer_plus <dreamer_plus@...> wrote: A couple years ago I had nodules on my finger knuckles, they did not hurt and after several months they went away on their own.
