Patient Spotlight “Thank you for giving me my hand back!” “Thank you, Laurie and JoAnn, for giving me back my hand! When I came to you, I was pretty discouraged. I couldn’t even write a grocery list, and the inability to write was significantly impacting both my professional and personal life. Writing is a large part of what I do for my job, and it’s my most satisfying personal pastime. Today, I can write for as long as I want and it’s pain-free! What a difference! I just wanted to thank you both for helping me achieve this important restoration.” - Donna Cameron FREE Pain Relief SCREENING • Arthritis Prevent injuries, shorten recovery time and
Your hand and wrist are an amazing, complex part ofyour body that allows you to touch, grasp, hold and manipulate most everything you do in the day. Just imagine ifyour hands were not working properly. For many people this is a reality and a painful one they face each day. Each hand and wrist contains, 29 bones, 29 major joints, 123 ligaments, 17 muscles in the palm and 18muscles in the forearm and numerousnerves.There isa lot that needs to work together at the right time and right place. When you suffer from pain in the hand or wrist this can be a result of overuse, arthritis, injury and even congenital problems. Having an expert to evaluate, and then put you on the right path to having the maximum use of your hand again, begins with seeing a hand therapist. A hand therapist is needed when pain, dysfunction, trauma or disease processes occur at the hand, wrist, forearm, elbow and/or shoulder. Due to the complexity of the hand and upper extremity, a hand therapist should be your first choice for rehabilitation.
Hand and wrist pain can be for a variety of reasons, such as movement, limitation due to crush injuries, fracture, tendon lacerations, nerve injuries, burns and wounds, carpal tunnel syndrome (nerve compression), Dupuytren’s contracture, Dequervain’s synovitis, Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy/ Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis.
