He was ordered not to by his superiors.

There are (I think) a few pictures of his hands which show them.

I've read that, at one point, he underwent a minor operation without anesthesia, because he didn't want to risk the doctors inspecting them, in violation of his superiors' orders, while he was unconscious.
