Hand & Wrist Surgery

Your hands and wrists are intricate structures composed of bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves. Because we rely on them for almost everything we do, injuries or conditions affecting the hand and wrist can significantly impact your daily life.

Dr. Nihar Modi offers comprehensive evaluation and treatment for a variety of hand and wrist problems, ranging from sports injuries to repetitive strain conditions.

Conditions We Treat

• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Relieving pressure on the median nerve to reduce pain, numbness, and tingling.
• Fractures: Treating broken bones in the hand, fingers, and wrist (e.g., distal radius fractures).
• Tendon Injuries: Repairing cut or torn tendons to restore movement.
• Trigger Finger: Treating inflammation that causes fingers to catch or lock.
• Arthritis: Managing osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis pain through medication, splinting, or surgery.
• Ganglion Cysts: Removing benign fluid-filled lumps that form along joints or tendons.

Treatment Philosophy

The goal is always to restore maximum function with the least invasive approach possible. Many hand and wrist conditions can be successfully treated with conservative measures such as splinting, medications, or hand therapy. When surgery is necessary, advanced microsurgical techniques are utilized for precise repair and faster recovery.
