Care and Treatment

Treatments

Hand surgery

Hand surgery incorporates a vast array of different types of surgery on the hand that attempt to restore not only the function of the hand, but try to maximize the cosmetic appearance of the hand.

Hand therapy rehabilitation: physical and occupational therapy

Physical therapy may include a regimen of exercise, tissue manipulation, and other treatments focused on maximizing function in specific body parts to help relieve pain. Occupational therapy focuses on a range of techniques to enable patients to return to work or a normal daily routine.

Splinting

Injuries or conditions of the hand or wrist may need specialized splinting in conjunction with physical therapy to help reduce swelling and pain, restore strength, endurance, coordination, movement, and function.
