Our goal is to maintain and restore maximum hand function
Your hands are so important to your overall health and well being. But sometimes, a disease or injury can hinder your hands’ ability to work the way you want them to. Pain, stiffness, numbness and tingling make it hard to grasp, feel, write, button and use the gross or fine motor skills most people take for granted.
Mercyhealth’s hand surgeons and occupational therapists address the delicate and vital structures of the hand, wrist or fingers. They deliver comprehensive care for a full range of hand problems, from single isolated tendon injuries to complex reconstructive procedures. Treatments range from conservative to more invasive: occupational therapy, orthopedic devices, injection therapies and reconstructive surgery.
If you are suffering aches or sharp pains or have trouble using your hands, wrists and fingers for small or large tasks, you may need to see a Mercyhealth hand specialist. We address these problems and others:
- Numbness or tingling in the hands and fingers
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Tendinitis
- Pain and stiffness from arthritis
- Repetitive stress injuries
- Effects of a traumatic injury such as a fracture or dislocation
- Pinched nerves
- Trigger finger
