There is a condition called "thyroid acropachy" in which clubbing occurs in the fingers. You can pull up a description of it online, from Google, if you want. It would be up to a doctor, though, to provide that diagnosis, because I have no idea whether or not clubbing can occur for other reasons.

I’d like to ask you guys if you have clubbed fingers?

I ask because my son who is just 15 years old has clubbed fingers and it wasn’t until today that my husband noticed it. If you didn’t know what a clubbed finger was you woudnlt even know it.

I have had my son checked out for thyroid issues before. He has since he was about 8 yrs old. My other kids will do the same as I don’t want to miss anything that might come up. My 1st son is from my 1st marriage and my ex doesn’t know his real father and who knows that history. Since I’m the one with Graves’ I tend to err on the side of caution with the kids since my moms two brother also have Graves’ and Hashi’s.

Just wanted to know if any of you guys noticed that you have clubbed fingers.

Thanks.
