Elbow Pain / Wrist Pain

Hand surgeons, hand surgeons, and elbow surgeons are orthopaedic specialists who diagnose and treat patients with many conditions that cause hand pain, wrist pain, or elbow pain. These specialists specialize in diagnosing injuries such as fractures and sprains, as well as other problems affecting joints, bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and ligaments.

To handle these types of injuries and claims, these experts used their expertise to provide the best options.

Elbow Specialist: Elbow specialists often see patients with problems caused by overuse of the muscles. Some elbow doctors also treat elbow problems that are considered sports injuries, such as tennis elbow and golfer’s elbow. Both sports medicine physicians and elbow specialists treat patients with these types of elbow conditions as part of a treatment plan that includes elbow surgery or surgical procedures.

Hand Specialist: Because the bones of the hand are smaller and more fragile than other bones in the body, a specially trained surgeon may be the only person who can perform the necessary hand surgery. There are many types of surgeries that hand surgeons can perform, from hand microsurgery and nerve reconstruction to fracture surgery and Dupuytren contracture surgery. Chiropractors also offer many surgical aids, such as XIAFLEX® injections.

Wrist Specialist: Hand surgeons are highly trained and have in-depth knowledge of the anatomy of the hand and how to treat it when injured. One of the hand problems these doctors often encounter is carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition in which compression of the muscles in the hand causes pain in the hands and elbows when the nerve in the middle of the hand becomes blocked. This is just one of the many hand injuries that experts encounter. They also specialize in many types of hand surgery, including hand fracture repair, neurosurgery, and hand microsurgery.
