Wrist Services at OSSM Group

Our surgeons provide hand and wrist care as part of their comprehensive orthopedic practice.

Wrist surgery encompasses a range of procedures aimed at addressing various wrist conditions and injuries. The wrist is a complex joint that can be affected by conditions such as carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist fractures, ligament tears, arthritis, and tendonitis. At OSSM, our orthopedic surgeons perform wrist surgeries tailored to each patient’s specific needs. From minimally invasive arthroscopy to complex reconstructive procedures, our team employs advanced techniques to restore mobility, alleviate pain, and improve wrist function. Whether it’s repairing a fracture, releasing the carpal tunnel, or addressing chronic wrist pain, we provide comprehensive care to help patients regain strength and regain full use of their wrists. Trust OSSM for comprehensive wrist care and treatment of various wrist conditions, enabling you to return to your daily activities with confidence and comfort.

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition characterized by the compression of the median nerve in the wrist, leading to pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and fingers. At OSSM, our orthopedic surgeons provide treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. Through surgical interventions such as carpal tunnel release, we alleviate pressure on the nerve, restoring sensation and function to the affected hand.

Chronic wrist pain can be caused by various factors, including repetitive strain injuries, ligament tears, tendonitis, or previous trauma. At OSSM, our dedicated team of specialists is experienced in diagnosing and treating chronic wrist pain. Through comprehensive evaluations and advanced imaging techniques, we identify the underlying causes and develop personalized treatment plans. Our goal is to alleviate pain and improve wrist function through a combination of non-surgical interventions such as physical therapy, medication, and, if necessary, minimally invasive surgical procedures.
Arthritis is a condition characterized by inflammation and degeneration of the joints, including the wrist. Wrist arthritis can cause pain, stiffness, and limited range of motion, affecting daily activities. At OSSM, our orthopedic specialists are skilled in managing wrist arthritis. Through a multidisciplinary approach, we offer a range of treatment options tailored to each patient’s needs. These may include medications, joint injections, splinting, physical therapy, and, if conservative measures are ineffective, surgical interventions such as wrist arthroscopy or joint replacement.
