Hand and wrist surgeon
Hand and wrist surgery is a precise, exacting specialty which requires a high degree of technical skill and ability. This speciality falls within the remit of an orthopaedic surgeon.
A hand and wrist surgeon treats a variety of disease and injuries to these parts of the body which include sprained ligaments, broken fingers, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, damaged nerves, dislocated fingers and arthritis.
Examples of hand and wrist surgery include:
- Arthroscopic surgery to treat wrist fractures
- Removal of bone spurs
- Cyst/ganglion removal
- Fracture of the scaphoid bone
- Release the tension caused by a ‘trigger finger’
- Fasciectomy (correct unnaturally bent fingers caused by Dupuytren’s Contracture).
A hand and wrist surgeon will have their own particular sub-speciality, for example, treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or several specialisms.
