General hand surgery

The hand is a complex and essential organ in our daily lives. Certain conditions can cause pain, stiffness, or limited movement, affecting your independence and activities. This specialty of hand surgery and rehabilitation treats the most common disorders in order to restore mobility, strength, and comfort, and help you resume your activities with peace of mind.

Different conditions treated

Fractures can affect the bones of the hand or wrist and cause pain, swelling, and limited movement.

Treatment depends on severity: immobilization with a splint, realignment, or surgery to reposition and stabilize the bones.

The goal is to ensure proper healing and prevent functional complications.

Tendons are responsible for the fine movements of the hand and fingers. A rupture can significantly limit mobility and cause pain.

Depending on the type and location, treatment may include surgical repair of the tendon or specific rehabilitation to gradually restore function.

Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled sacs that often appear on the wrist or fingers. They may be unsightly or interfere with movement.

Treatment usually involves draining or removing the cyst to relieve pain and restore mobility.

This condition gradually causes the fingers to curl toward the palm, limiting the ability to open the hand.

Treatments may include injections, release of contracted tissue, or surgery to restore function and prevent progression.

Trigger finger locks in a bent position and then suddenly releases, often painfully.

Treatment aims to release the trapped tendon, either through non-invasive techniques or a minor surgical procedure to restore smooth, pain-free movement.

Osteoarthritis causes progressive wear of the joints in the hand and wrist, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced strength.

Treatments range from rehabilitation and splinting to surgery, including joint replacement, to restore function and reduce pain.

Whatever the condition, the goal remains the same: to restore a mobile, strong, and pain-free hand, allowing a smooth return to daily activities.

Each treatment is tailored according to the diagnosis and the patient’s functional needs.
