Don't let wrist pain limit your activities any longer. Our expert team is ready to help you on your journey to recovery.
Wrist pain varies significantly in type, location, and severity. Understanding the nature of your specific wrist pain is crucial for effective treatment and long-term relief.
Your wrist consists of eight small carpal bones that connect your hand to your forearm. These bones, along with ligaments, tendons, nerves, and blood vessels, work together to provide the flexibility and strength needed for daily activities. The wrist's complex structure makes it particularly vulnerable to injury and pain.
Our specialist team conducts thorough assessments to identify exactly which structures are causing your pain, whether it's tendons, ligaments, nerves, or bones. We use advanced diagnostic techniques including physical examination, imaging studies, and functional movement analysis to develop a precise treatment plan tailored to your specific condition.
Wrist anatomy and common pain areas
Our expert team specializes in diagnosing and treating various types of wrist pain, each requiring a unique approach for optimal recovery.
Compression of the median nerve in the wrist causing pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and fingers. Often worse at night and with repetitive activities.
Inflammation of the tendons in the wrist, often from overuse or repetitive movements. Common in athletes, musicians, and office workers.
Painful inflammation of tendons on the thumb side of the wrist. Causes pain when gripping, twisting the wrist, or making a fist.
Stretching or tearing of ligaments in the wrist, often from falls or sudden twisting movements. Causes pain, swelling, and limited motion.
Degenerative joint condition causing stiffness, pain, and reduced range of motion. Can be osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis.
Many wrist pain conditions share similar symptoms, making self-diagnosis difficult. Our specialists use comprehensive assessment techniques to determine the exact cause of your pain and create an appropriate treatment plan.
