    Dramatic, Simple Relief from Dupuytren's Contracture. Another WellMoment brought to you by Dr. Robert Coats at WellGroup. Sometimes confused with Trigger Finger, Dupuytren's Contracture is a systemic disease that causes a progressive, abnormal thickening of the tissue in the palm of the hand. Over time, a rope-like cord may develop that pulls the finger permanently towards the palm. The cords are not only visible, but palpable, meaning they can be felt – it's like there's a small twig or branch underneath the skin. > Learn More

    Controlling Peripheral Arterial Disease. Another WellMoment brought to you by Eugene Tanquilut at WellGroup Peripheral Arterial Disease, or PAD, affects as many as 12 million Americans.

This slows blood flow and can lead to blockages, increasing your risk of heart attack or stroke by four to five times. Ultimately, PAD may lead to ulcers, gangrene and amputation if left untreated. > Learn More
