Arthritis Hand Surgery

Arthritis hand surgery is a medical procedure aimed at relieving pain and restoring function in the hands affected by arthritis, a condition that causes joint inflammation. The surgery may involve repairing damaged tissues, realigning bones, or replacing affected joints to improve mobility and reduce discomfort. It is typically considered when non-surgical treatments, like medications and therapy, are no longer effective. The goal is to enhance daily activities and the quality of life for those suffering from severe arthritis symptoms in their hands. Recovery times vary, and rehabilitation is often needed afterward.
