Hand Surgery

Hand specialists are orthopaedic doctors who focus on diagnosing, treating, and preventing disorders related to the hand.

We tailor treatment based on diagnosis and severity and aim to restore function and alleviate pain, whether through conservative measures or surgical intervention.

  1. When to Visit a Hand Specialist:

    • Symptoms: If you experience pain, reduced function, or mobility issues in your hand, wrist, or forearm.
    • Conditions: We understand the intricate network of blood vessels, nerves, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and bones in the hand and are therefore well equipped to handle various disorders.
    • Red Flags: Urgently get in touch with us if you have severe pain, swelling, bruising, an obvious deformity, or an inability to move your hand normally.

  2. Common Hand Conditions:

    • Injuries: Hand injuries can result from trauma or overuse. Immediate injuries (like fractures) may require realignment, while chronic issues may persist.
    • Treatment Options:
      • Non-Surgical: Hand therapy, splinting, medications, and injections are initial approaches.
      • Surgery: If non-surgical methods fail or significant damage occurs, surgery may be recommended. Examples include: Arthroscopic surgery, carpal tunnel surgery, microvascular and peripheral nerve surgery.
