Hand & Wrist

You may not realize it, but you use your hands and wrists a lot. They are in constant motion, reaching for, grasping, or carrying items of all shapes and sizes, both heavy and light. As a result of daily use, your hands and wrists are susceptible to a variety of injuries and conditions, such as sprains, fractures, and overuse injuries. Among the many conditions and injuries Dr. Kinchelow routinely treats are:

Common Hand and Wrist Conditions

• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Nerve compression
• Fingertip injuries
• Nailbed injuries
• Fractures of the fingers, hand, and wrist
• Ligament sprain

Problems can also occur in the muscles and joints of your hands and wrists. Normal wear-and-tear can result in arthritis, while other problems can be the result of medical conditions such as diabetes or pregnancy.
