Which injuries and conditions do we treat?
In short, we treat problems from the upper arm (shoulder excluded) to the fingertips, varying from post-operative treatment after hand or wrist surgery, to treatment of soft tissue injury like a tendon or muscle sprain, to treatment of conditions as a result of overuse, chronic pain or related to an existing disease.
The following is a more comprehensive list of injuries and diseases:
- Fractures / crush injury
- Dislocations / ligament injury
- Tendon repairs / tendon transfers
- Tendon and muscle sprain injury
- Nerve injury / nerve compression
- Amputations / replantations
- Burns
- Complex Regional Pain Syndrome related problems
- (Osteo) Arthritis involving the wrist and finger joint
- Oedema management: reduction of swelling
- Scar management: scars that are raised, tight and painful
- Post surgical Dupuytren's release
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
If any additional information is required for further diagnostic and/or treatment plan purposes, we can arrange referrals for x-rays or an ultra-sound, or to a hand surgeon.
