Hand Trauma

Hand surgery attempts to restore function of fingers and hands injured by trauma. This may include surgery to repair bones, tendons, nerves or blood vessels. It is very common to be referred to a hand therapist after hand trauma.

CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME

Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure to the median nerve within the wrist, or carpal tunnel. Patients might feel pain, a tingling sensation, numbness of the fingers, weakness or aching. Carpal tunnel syndrome is associated with multiple causes including some medical conditions (hypothyroidism) fluid retention during pregnancy, injury to the nerve in the carpal tunnel or rheumatoid arthritis.
