Hand & wrist reconstruction surgery

Hand and wrist surgery can relieve painful symptoms caused by a number of diseases and conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis. It can also help restore strength and flexibility in the hands, wrists and fingers.

Every Aurora reconstructive plastic surgeon is board certified and dedicated to making your surgery both safe and successful. 

Hand or wrist surgery may be used to treat:

• Arthritis of the hand, fingers or wrist
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Compartment syndrome (a painful condition that happens after an injury and causes the hand to swell and feel numb)
• Deformities
• Fractures
• Full or partial amputations
• Human or animal bites
• Injuries from machinery
• Spinal cord injuries that affect the hands or wrists
• Sprains and strains
• Trigger finger (when a tendon becomes inflamed, causing the finger to pop, feel stiff or get stuck in a bent position)
• Wounds
