Has anyone ever heard of anything natural, or alternative medicine that helps...

...DUPUYTREN'S CONTRACTURE? This is sometimes called "trigger finger" and most doctors claim their is no cure, and that minor hand surgery can help problem but it will probably come back again.

[?Bijou Cat???]

Try Vtamin E and topical DMSO. Just be careful if you do use DMSO as it takes anything that it comes into contact with through the skin so be careful.

Dupuytren's contracture is a fibrotic disease, characterised by scar tissue. You could try anti-fibrotic herbs such as the chinese herbs Angelica sinensis and Danshen (Salvia miltiorrhiza) and also the herb Milk thistle.

There are also enzymes such as serrapeptase and nattokinase and bromelain that might help.

You can make up your own treatment plan along these lines but I would also take at least one anti-fibrotic herb...if you are not on anti-fibrotic medication such as colchicine. Talk to your doctor first before taking herbs if you are on medication because of a risk of interactions.

I would also take MSM (organic sulphur) as it is reputed to have anti-scarring properties along with vitamin E and C taken internally.

I would also browse Dupuytren's forums to see what has been tried and tested by others and deemed to help. Such as these:
