Rheumatic Hand Surgery

Rheumatic hand surgery is a specialized procedure for individuals suffering from rheumatoid arthritis or similar conditions that affect the joints in the hand. This surgery aims to relieve pain, restore function, and improve mobility by addressing joint damage and deformities caused by inflammation. Surgeons may realign bones, remove damaged tissue, or replace joints. The goal is to help patients regain their ability to perform daily activities, enhancing their quality of life. Post-surgery, rehabilitation and therapy are often necessary to maximize hand function and strength.
