What is Hand Trauma?
Hand trauma refers to injuries involving bones, tendons, and soft tissues of the hand. These injuries can occur from falls, accidents, or cuts. They can cause pain, swelling, and loss of motion. Prompt care is important to avoid long-term problems.
Common Injuries We Treat
Broken Bones: Fractures in the fingers, hand, or wrist may need a splint, cast, or surgery. If bones are out of place, Dr. Jenq may need to realign them and hold them with pins or plates. This helps ensure proper healing.
Tendon Injuries: Tendons connect muscles to bones and help your fingers move. When a tendon is cut or torn, you may not be able to bend or straighten your fingers. Surgery may be needed to repair the tendon and restore movement.
What to Expect from Treatment
Some injuries can be treated with a splint or brace in the clinic. Others may need surgery, especially if tendons or bones are involved. Surgery is usually done in an outpatient setting, meaning you go home the same day.
After treatment, you may need hand therapy. This helps restore strength, movement, and function over time. Dr. Jenq works closely with you to guide recovery and avoid stiffness.
