At the Center for Advanced Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, we use a comprehensive approach to diagnose and treat hand and wrist conditions. Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, patient history, and imaging tests such as X-rays, MRI, or ultrasound. Treatment options include:
Common signs include numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand, especially in the thumb, index, and middle fingers.
Regular stretching, strengthening exercises, and taking breaks during repetitive tasks can help prevent injuries.
If your pain persists for more than a few days, is severe, or limits your ability to perform daily activities, see a doctor.
Many conditions can be effectively managed with non-surgical treatments like physical therapy, medications, and injections.
De Quervain’s tenosynovitis is often caused by repetitive hand or wrist movements, leading to inflammation of the tendons.
Wrist fractures are diagnosed through physical examination and imaging tests like X-rays.
Regular exercise, maintaining good ergonomics, and avoiding overuse can help keep your hands and wrists healthy.
