Hand surgery is performed to restore the normal function of the hand and fingers. It is the first treatment option for severe hand trauma patients, and it is the best solution after less-invasive methods have not worked to repair the issue.
Sustaining a wrist injury can be detrimental to its function and can negatively affect your daily life. Because the hand and wrist have complex structures that work together, an injury or disorder in any component can have repercussions in functionality.
We use our shoulders in most of our daily activities. In any of these activities, there are possibilities for strain or injury. Finding the right treatment that depends on the injury’s severity and the affected area, is crucial to regain our shoulder’s function and mobility.
It is not every day that you find an orthopedic surgeon who is passionate about changing patients’ lives through skillful and effective treatment. In Delray Beach, Dr. Steve Meadows is a leading board-certified orthopedic surgeon with advanced training in hand and upper extremity surgery.
Hand surgery can be necessary to treat conditions or injuries when non-surgical treatments have been unsuccessful or if there is significant damage to the hand, which requires repair. As with any type of surgical procedure, pre and post op care is very important in order to have a successful recovery following surgery.
