Even when other parts of the body are at rest, the hands are often busy. Hands are so vital to even the most basic activities of daily living. Their delicate bone structure and network of nerves make them vulnerable to hand injuries and hand pain conditions. Our hand pain specialists provide hand injury treatment for trauma to the bones, joints, tendons and nerves of the hand. When your hand pain is a result of hand arthritis, nerve compression syndromes, hand tumors or congenital conditions, reconstructive care via a wide range of surgical procedures is available.
Hand pain diagnosis is commonly made on careful physical examination alone. X-rays, electrical studies and diagnostic arthroscopy may be needed to diagnose the source of your hand pain.
The type of conservative hand pain treatment provided depends on the diagnosis and prognosis of the individual's hand pain condition. Our physicians have many options at their disposal including splints, cortisone injections and individualized physical therapy programs.
When conservative hand pain treatments fail to provide adequate relief, our surgeons intervene often using arthroscopy and microsurgery to make the delicate repairs that hand injuries or other hand pain conditions require. Hand pain surgical procedures include correction of traumatic hand injuries, such as fractures, joint injuries or tendon lacerations; reconstructive surgery for osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (including joint replacement in the hand), nerve compressive syndromes and congenital hand deformities.
Microsurgery forms an integral part of hand pain treatment not only in the acute setting (replantation and revascularization of amputated or injured parts) but in other hand pain conditions requiring free tissue (muscle or bone) transfer.
