Hand Surgery
What is hand surgery?
Hand surgery is the medical specialty that deals with the medical and surgical treatments for conditions affecting the wrist, hand and upper extremities (forearm).
The hand is a finely-tuned part of the body that is a complex construction of bone, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, nerves, skin, and blood vessels. If any part of this structure cannot function properly due to injury or disease, it can severely affect our quality of life.
Hand surgeons provide:
- Non-surgical treatments such as splints, therapy, injections, or medication to improve or control your hand condition.
- Surgical treatments such as carpal tunnel release, trigger finger surgery and hand trauma surgery.
