Wrist
The wrists are vital components of our daily activities, facilitating movements that range from delicate precision to robust strength. Yet, the intricate nature of the wrist makes it susceptible to various injuries, from acute trauma to chronic conditions.
At McNamara Hand, we specialize in providing expert care for a wide array of wrist injuries and orthopedic conditions. Led by Dr. Michael McNamara, a distinguished orthopedic surgeon renowned for his expertise in hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder care, our clinic is committed to delivering personalized treatments tailored to each patient’s unique needs.
Fractures and Dislocations: Wrist fractures and dislocations can occur due to sudden impacts or falls, resulting in pain, swelling, and limited mobility. Our team excels in diagnosing and treating these injuries, utilizing advanced imaging techniques and innovative surgical interventions to restore wrist function and stability.
Tendon and Ligament Injuries: The tendons and ligaments in the wrist play crucial roles in stabilizing and controlling movement. Injuries such as tendonitis, sprains, or tears can lead to pain, weakness, and instability, impairing everyday activities. Our comprehensive approach to treatment includes conservative therapies and, when necessary, surgical solutions to optimize recovery and function.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Compression of the median nerve in the wrist can cause carpal tunnel syndrome, resulting in symptoms such as numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand and fingers. Our clinic offers a range of treatment options, from non-invasive therapies to advanced surgical techniques, tailored to alleviate symptoms and restore nerve function.
Arthritis: Arthritis can affect the joints of the wrist, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling that impact hand function and mobility. Our multidisciplinary team provides comprehensive care, including medications, injections, and surgical interventions, to manage symptoms and improve joint health for patients with arthritis.
At McNamara Hand, we understand the impact that wrist injuries can have on daily life. Our commitment to compassionate care, combined with state-of-the-art diagnostics and treatment modalities, ensures that each patient receives the highest quality of care throughout their journey to recovery.
If you’re experiencing wrist pain, discomfort, or limited mobility due to an injury, don’t wait to seek treatment. We’re here to help you get back to doing the things you love with confidence and ease.
