Know Your Hand & Wrist

Hand & Wrist Anatomy

The hand and wrist are complex structures that provide strength, flexibility, and precise movement for everyday activities. Together, they allow us to grasp objects, perform fine motor tasks, and interact with our environment.

The hand and wrist consist of numerous bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves that work together to create coordinated movement while maintaining stability. Because of their complexity and frequent use, hand and wrist conditions can significantly affect daily life and function.

Bones & Joints

The wrist contains eight carpal bones, while the hand includes metacarpals and phalanges that enable movement and dexterity.

Tendons

Tendons connect muscles to bones, allowing finger and wrist movement for gripping and precise actions.

Ligaments

Strong ligaments stabilize the hand and wrist joints and maintain proper alignment during motion.

Nerves

The median, ulnar, and radial nerves provide sensation and control movement throughout the hand and wrist.

Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to some of the most common questions about hand and wrist pain, nerve compression, arthritis, fractures, tendon injuries, and orthopedic treatment options.

What are the most common causes of hand and wrist pain?

Hand and wrist pain can result from arthritis, tendonitis, nerve compression, fractures, ligament injuries, repetitive strain, sports injuries, or overuse conditions. A thorough orthopedic evaluation can help identify the underlying cause and guide appropriate treatment.

What is carpal tunnel syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed as it passes through the wrist. Common symptoms include numbness, tingling, weakness, and pain in the hand and fingers, particularly at night.

When should I see an orthopedic specialist for hand or wrist pain?

You should consult an orthopedic specialist if symptoms persist for more than a few days, interfere with daily activities, cause weakness or numbness, or occur after an injury. Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent long-term complications.

What causes trigger finger?

Trigger finger occurs when inflammation narrows the space around a tendon in the finger, causing it to catch or lock during movement. Symptoms may include stiffness, clicking, or difficulty straightening the finger.

When is hand or wrist surgery recommended?

Surgery may be recommended when non-surgical treatments fail to relieve symptoms or when fractures, tendon injuries, nerve compression, arthritis, or ligament damage significantly affect hand function and quality of life.

How long does recovery take after hand surgery?

Recovery time varies depending on the procedure and the severity of the condition. Some patients recover within a few weeks, while more complex procedures may require several months of rehabilitation and hand therapy.
