Hand Specialists in Fort Mill, SC

Providing Care for Hand and Wrist Pain

We use our hands and wrists a lot, as they are in constant motion grasping, reaching, and carrying items. As a result, they are often susceptible to injuries such as sprains and fractures. They can also be prone to overuse conditions such as tendonitis and carpal tunnel syndrome. Problems can also occur in the hand muscles and joints. Hands can be affected by normal wear and tear on the joints resulting in arthritis.

At SpecOrtho, our hand specialist in Fort Mill is highly trained to diagnose and treat all types of hand and wrist problems. Our hand surgeon has extensive experience in the delicate procedures required to relieve hand pain, repair nerve injuries, and restore or preserve your normal function to the hands and wrists. If you are currently experiencing hand & wrist pain, contact our orthopaedic clinic in Fort Mill, SC, and call (803) 548-6464 or schedule an appointment today!

However, physical therapy could be prescribed to help patients regain strength, mobility, and function.
