Hand and Wrist Injury Symptoms

Hand or wrist injuries can happen to people of any age and come in many different forms. Sometimes, these injuries occur due to a sports or athletic injury and other times, injuries can occur due to an impact, like a slip and fall.

Here are some of the many signs that you have injured your hand or wrist:

Pain when holding, turning, or lifting things
Swelling
Heat or redness
Numbness, tingling, or throbbing
A grinding feeling in the joints
Cysts at the joints

When to See a Hand and Wrist Specialist

If pain or stiffness is limiting your ability to perform normal activities or be active, it may be time to see one of the Hand and Wrist Specialists at Orthopedic & Spine Centers of Wisconsin. In many cases, conditions of the hand or wrist can be treated with non-surgical options including:

Bracing
Casting
Medications
Injection therapies

If non-surgical options have not provided relief, or your condition involves the nerves within the hand or wrist, surgery may be recommended. Surgical procedures of the hand or wrist can often be performed arthroscopically and as an outpatient procedure. Depending upon your specific injury, there is a range of surgical options that include arthroscopic surgery, ligament reconstruction and repair, or fracture fixation.
