Dear Doctor, I am posting my son's thump which was cut in a lift accident when he was 6 years old. Presently he is 18 years old. Please advise is there any plastic surgery that to change the look of the thump. During the accident, doctors used grafting to join the thump. It dint worked out perfectly.
