Nodules
The most common symptom of this disease is one or more tiny lumps or nodules in the palm of your hand. The nodules may be sensitive at first, but this tenderness normally fades with time. In addition, there may be “pitting” or deep indentation of the skin near the nodules in some situations.
-
Cords
Hard tissue cords under the skin are another symptom of Dupuytren’s contracture. This is because the nodules may thicken and contract, forming tight and tough tissue cords beneath the skin. These cords might make it difficult for the fingers and thumb to straighten or expand apart period

Contractures
As the tissue beneath the skin tightens, one or more of your fingers may be drawn into your palm, preventing them from extending apart. Although the ring and little fingers are the most commonly affected, any or all of the fingers, including the thumb, may be affected.
