Hand & Wrist Surgery: Finding the Right Doctor and Assistance with POSMC

Every movement in our daily life involves the use of our hands and wrist, making them essential parts of our daily existence. However, the hand and wrist are among the most complex body parts made up of intricate muscles, nerves, bones, and joints that can become easily damaged due to work or lifestyle habits. Surgery might be the answer to treat these damages, but it is crucial to find the right doctor and clinic for the best results. In this blog post, we will discuss everything you need to know about hand and wrist surgery and how we at POSMC can assist.

Doctors Who Treat Hand & Wrist:
If you have been experiencing pain, numbness, or loss of strength in your hands, it is essential to seek the attention of a specialist in hand and wrist surgery. A surgeon who specializes in this field is called a hand surgeon or orthopedic surgeon who has extra training in hand and wrist surgery. At POSMC, we have a team of specialized doctors to examine your condition and suggest the best treatment plan according to your diagnosis.

What is the Procedure?
Every surgical procedure for hand and wrist depends on your diagnosis and the extent of the damage. Some common conditions that require hand and wrist surgery are fractures, carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, and tumors.
