The bone is sticking out and you can move and push on it and it pushes down and up. She pounds on the wrist with gymnastics as she is a high level competitor. Can you tell me if you know a doctor who specializes in this? We are meeting wonderful hand surgeons' but they don't know much about it and have not performed any surgery for it. I want the guru guy/gal that knows this deformity any help would be appreciated. thanks My daughter , 13, gymnast was diagnosed with Madelung’s deformity.
