Summary
Steroids are often prescribed for their anti-inflammatory effects in patients with
musculoskeletal injuries. Studies have shown that steroids may reduce pain and swelling, but
their effects on range of motion and functional outcomes have not been illustrated. With this
study, we aim to evaluate the effect of steroids on range of motion and functional outcomes
in non-operatively managed musculoskeletal injuries of the hand.
