Abstract:
An elongated yieldable conical element has a nonrigid body which is compressible to a conical shape increasing in diameter from a narrow diameter end. The conical element is used in a method of treating a contracture of successive fingers of the hand by threading a narrow and of the element through successive curled fingers of the hand and engaging the conical end at about the narrow diameter end to apply outwardly directed force to the fingers of the hand to open the curl to some extent with minimized discomfort to a user.
