Conditions We Treat 🩺
At Orlando Hand Surgery Associates, we specialize in diagnosing and treating a wide variety of conditions affecting the upper extremities. Here are some of the common issues we address:
Hand and Wrist Conditions ✋
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome:
Characterized by numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand, carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure on the median nerve. Our surgeons offer both surgical and non-surgical treatment options to relieve symptoms and restore function. - Trigger Finger:
This condition occurs when a finger gets stuck in a bent position and then suddenly pops straight. Our treatment options range from splinting and steroid injections to surgical release. - De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis:
De Quervain’s is a painful condition affecting the tendons on the thumb side of your wrist. We offer effective treatments to alleviate pain and restore mobility. - Dupuytren’s Contracture:
This condition causes the fingers to bend towards the palm due to thickening of the tissue under the skin. Our team provides both surgical and non-surgical treatments to address this issue.
Elbow Conditions 💪
- Tennis Elbow:
Despite its name, tennis elbow can affect anyone who repetitively uses their arm in certain ways. It involves inflammation of the tendons on the outside of the elbow, and we offer various treatments, including physical therapy, injections, and surgery. - Cubital Tunnel Syndrome:
This condition results from pressure or stretching of the ulnar nerve (often called the “funny bone” nerve) and can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the hand. We provide both conservative and surgical treatment options.
Shoulder Conditions 🏋️♂️
- Rotator Cuff Tears:
The rotator cuff is a group of muscles and tendons that stabilize the shoulder. Tears can result from injury or degeneration. Our team specializes in both arthroscopic and open surgical repairs to restore shoulder function. - Shoulder Impingement Syndrome:
This condition occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become irritated and inflamed as they pass through the shoulder joint. We offer a range of treatments, from physical therapy to minimally invasive surgery. - Shoulder Dislocations and Instability:
If you have experienced a shoulder dislocation, you may be at risk of recurrent dislocations. Our surgeons are skilled in both non-surgical and surgical techniques to stabilize the shoulder.
