Hand & Wrist Conditions
Hand and wrist conditions can significantly impact daily activities and quality of life. Our team at the University of Michigan Comprehensive Hand Center specializes in diagnosing and treating a wide range of hand and wrist conditions.
Common Hand and Wrist Conditions
We treat various conditions affecting the hand and wrist, including but not limited to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and De Quervain Tenosynovitis. These conditions can cause pain, weakness, and mobility issues that may affect your ability to perform everyday tasks.
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - A condition caused by pressure on the median nerve in the wrist, leading to pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand.
- De Quervain Tenosynovitis - This condition involves inflammation of the tendons at the base of the thumb, resulting in pain and difficulty with movement.
Diagnosis and Treatment
Diagnosis typically involves a combination of physical examinations, medical history review, and possibly imaging tests. Treatment varies based on the condition but may include medication, therapy, splints, or surgery.
