Peripheral Nerve Surgery

Peripheral nerve surgery in the context of hand surgery involves repairing or relieving pressure on nerves that control hand movement and sensation. When nerves are injured due to trauma, compression, or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, surgery can help restore function. The procedure may involve removing scar tissue, repairing the nerve, or even grafting a healthy nerve segment. The goal is to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance the ability to feel sensations in the hand, ultimately helping patients regain their quality of life and normal function in daily activities.
