Hand Surgery
When pain in your hands, shoulders or elbows limits you and prevents you from doing the activities you enjoy, turn to the surgeons at Northwest Healthcare. Surgery may be an option when more conservative treatments like anti-inflammatory medication, splints, physical therapy and cortisone shots have failed to provide long-term relief.
Hand surgeons at Northwest Healthcare specialize in treating all conditions of the upper extremities, including:
- Carpal tunnel syndrome – pain/numbness/tingling in the thumb, index and middle fingers.
- Trigger finger – usually due to painful clicking or locking of the fingers or thumb
- Dupuytren’s contracture – nodules in the palm
- Ganglion cysts and tumors
- Tendinitis of the wrist
- Arthritis of the hand and wrist
- Wrist/elbow arthroscopy
- Tennis elbow
- Fractures of the hand/wrist
