Hand and Wrist Pain

Hand and wrist pain can interfere with daily activities such as gripping, typing, lifting, or fine motor tasks. Symptoms may develop gradually from overuse or occur after an injury.

At Twin Creeks Orthopedics and Regenerative Clinic, we focus on identifying the cause of hand and wrist pain and guiding appropriate nonsurgical care to improve function and reduce discomfort whenever possible.

Many patients seek care when symptoms persist despite rest, medications, or prior treatment.

Same-day appointments may be available for select conditions.

Do These Symptoms Sounds Familiar?

• Pain in the hand, wrist, or fingers
• Numbness or tingling in the hand
• Weak grip strength
• Stiffness or reduced movement
• Pain with repetitive use or activity
• Symptoms not improving with prior treatment

If so, an evaluation may help clarify the cause and next steps.

Common Causes of Hand and Wrist Pain

Hand and wrist pain may result from:

• Tendonitis from overuse or repetitive motion
• Arthritis affecting the joints of the hand or wrist
• Sprains or ligament injuries
• Nerve irritation or compression (i.e. carpal tunnel syndrome)
• Fractures (or break in the bone)
• Ganglion cysts (fluid-filled sacs near joints or tendons)

A careful evaluation helps determine the source of symptoms.

When Should You Seek Care?

Early evaluation may help prevent worsening symptoms and improve function. Consider scheduling an evaluation if you experience:

• Hand or wrist pain lasting several weeks
• Numbness, tingling, or weakness
• Difficulty with gripping or daily tasks
• Pain after an injury
• Symptoms that do not improve with rest
