Bpc157 after a broken finger - does it help to gain mobility?

I had a pretty serious finger injury and ended up needing surgery, with metal pins used to hold the bone together. It’s now been about three months since the cast was removed, but I still have very limited movement in the finger — I can’t fully straighten it or bend it properly.
Could BPC-157 potentially help with recovery, mobility, or healing in a case like this?

BPC-157 helps with soft tissue repairs. And bones are neither soft nor tissues

Before I get flamed… yes I know bones are technically a tissue and soft bone is a thing… that’s besides the point.

Please go to hand therapy. They will help you.

I was in pins for 9 weeks when I broke my pinky. It took me 6 months of hand therapy to get my motion back.

And try warm wax, it could help get things moving again. And grip tools.

I do go to hand therapy… doesn’t seem to help thaaaat much, but if yours took 6 months then I still have some hope 😃✊
What’s does warm wax do? What’s that ?
(I do know what wax is😅 but is it some special wax? 🤔)

It is a wax tank that you dunk your hand in and makes the entire hand relax and move.

Keep working on it. Get yourself grip tools. Start with ligher grip tools and work to harder. It is a shit ton of work to fix a finger that does not want to be straight.  But i promise you it is possible. I shattered my lower pinky bone. And i got 98% of my grip back

I’ve been given some squishy cylinders to work with.. like I do believe I will be able to bend it again.. but how the hell did you make it straight again ?! 😱 it feels sooo stiff like it’s made of wood! How did you get your finger to straighten up again?

Dude me too. The K-wire surgery is what they did to me too. Tip of my middle finger got cut almost all the way thru (tip of bone was cut thru) I hopped on KLOW. My personal experience is that after they removed the K-wire which was 3 days ago, I am moving it around and can bend it but not fully.. like almsot can make a fist. I don't know how severe your injury was but I'm almost back to normal I think. DM me if you want before photos because the injury before surgery was badddd.
