Hand & Wrist Arthritis

Arthritis is an inflammatory condition of the joints. There are several types of arthritis and the most common type is osteoarthritis or wear-and-tear arthritis.

Chronic Elbow Pain

Elbow dislocation occurs when the bones that make up the joint are forced out of alignment.

Trigger Finger

Trigger finger is caused by inflammation of the tenosynovium.

Dupuytren's Contracture

This disorder is a thickening of a ligament in the palm, resulting in nodules on the ligament which, if severe enough, can cause an inability to fully straighten the fingers.

Carpel Tunnel Syndrome

One of the main nerves providing sensation and motor function to the hand crosses the wrist in a structure called ‘carpal tunnel’.

Wrist Fractures

The wrist is comprised of two bones in the forearm, the radius and ulna, and eight tiny carpal bones in the palm.

Treatment for Hand & Wrist Arthritis

Nonsurgical treatment methods for relieving pain in an arthritic joint include activity modification, pain medications, and use of splints, and steroid injections.

Elbow Replacement

Elbow joint replacement, also referred to as total elbow arthroplasty, is an operative procedure to treat the symptoms of arthritis that have not responded to non-surgical treatments.

Trigger Finger Release

Your surgeon will recommend conservative treatment options to treat the trigger finger symptoms
