Flexor tendons run from the forearm to the ends of the fingers across the palm side of the hand. They control the ability to bend fingers down to the palm (for example to make a fist, grip, or pinch objects). When these tendons are cut or injured, it can be impossible to bend the fingers or thumb.
Rupture of the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon from its distal attachment is commonly known as jersey finger. This injury occurs most often in athletes involved in contact sports, such as American football or rugby [1].
Spontaneous rupture of flexor tendons, other site The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M66. 38 became effective on October 1, 2021. This is the American ICD-10-CM version of M66. 38 - other international versions of ICD-10 M66.
Flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendons They run down the forearm and within the carpal tunnel. The four tendons glide in sheaths along the hand and fingers and insert into the fingertip bone. These tendons run closer to the bone compared to the rest of the flexors in the hand and fingers.
Zone I is distal to the FDS insertion, zone II between the FDS insertion and beginning of A1, zone III in the palm, zone IV under the transverse carpal ligament, and zone V proximal (Verdan C: Primary repair of flexor tendons.
The flexor tendons are strong smooth cords that connect the muscles of the forearm to the bones in the fingers and thumb. There are two to each finger and one for the thumb (See diagram). The tendons run inside tunnels at the wrist and in the fingers, and they bend your fingers in the manner of a bicycle brake cable.
Spontaneous rupture of unspecified tendon M66. 9 is a billable/specific ICD-10-CM code that can be used to indicate a diagnosis for reimbursement purposes. The 2022 edition of ICD-10-CM M66. 9 became effective on October 1, 2021.
The flexor pollicis longus (FPL) is a long muscle located at the deep layer with flexor digitorum profundus and pronator quadratus in the anterior compartment of the forearm. Though it is situated at the forearm, it is classified as part of the extrinsic muscles of the hand as it's function is seen in thumb movement.
forearmFlexor digitorum profundus is a fusiform muscle located deep within the anterior (flexor) compartment of the forearm. Along with the flexor pollicis longus and pronator quadratus muscles, it comprises the deep flexor compartment of the forearm.

If you bend it down and hold it for me I can prove that FDP is not having any action there because it is completely slack at the DI p joint.
Tendons of flexor digitorum sperficialis (FDS) and profundus (FDP) (with flexor policis longus) are located deeper respectively 1,2. Tendons of FDS and FDP are enclosed in a common synovial sheath, the ulnar bursa which is extended from wrist proximally to hand distally; and continues to synovial bursa of fifth finger.
To test the FDP tendon, the patient flexes the distal phalanx. To test the FDS tendon, MCP and PIP joints are released, distal phalanges are kept extended, and the patient flexes the finger. The PIP joint and, to a lesser degree, the MCP joint should flex.
If your flexor tendons are damaged, you'll be unable to bend 1 or more fingers. Tendon damage can also cause pain and swelling (inflammation) in your hand. Sometimes, damage to the extensor tendons can be treated without the need for surgery, using a rigid support called a splint that's worn around the hand.
A flexor tendon takes approximately 3 to 4 months to heal before your hand is strong enough to use without restrictions. usually you will be required to wear a protective splint for approximately 6 o 8 weeks after surgery, removing it only to do exercise prescribed by your doctor and therapist.
Flexor tendon injuries do not heal by themselves and frequently require surgery to put the injured tendon back to its normal position. When surgery is required, a splint and hand therapy may be used after the procedure to protect you and to aid in recovery.
Following a tendon injury, rest your hand and wear a bandage to compress your painful fingers. Apply ice and elevate your hand above your heart as much as possible to reduce pain and swelling. Then, seek professional medical attention to make sure you get complete, proper care for your injury.
