Precise diagnosis, microsurgical repair, and rehabilitation: Aimed at safe function and a quick return to daily life.
Who: Finger/hand/wrist breaks, jammed joints, sports injuries.
Technique/Anesthesia: Closed reduction & splint; percutaneous pins or plates if needed.
Time/Stay: 20–90 min; day-case.
Recovery: Splint 2–4 w; therapy starts early to avoid stiffness.
Only if alignment/rotation is off or unstable.
Desk work in days; manual work after union per X-ray.
Who: Knife/glass cuts with loss of motion.
Technique/Anesthesia: Microsuture repair + protected early motion protocol.
Time/Stay: 45–90 min; day-case.
Recovery: Splint 4–6 w; hand therapy essential.
Best within hours–days; earlier is easier.
Strength builds over months; adherence prevented by therapy.
Who: Numb fingertip after cut, electric shock feeling, Tinel sign
Technique/Anesthesia: Microsurgical repair/graft; loupe/microscope.
Time/Stay: 45–120 min; day-case.
Recovery: Sensation returns gradually (mm/day); desensitization exercises.
Scar/Lasting: Low bikini-line + around navel; long-lasting.
Earlier repair improves outcomes; age and gap matter.
10–14 days; splint protects repair.
Who: Pain/instability after fall or sports.
Technique/Anesthesia: Splinting; if complete tear—anchor/repair.
Time/Stay: 30–60 min; day-case.
Recovery: Splint 4–6 w; sport return per stability.
Exam often sufficient; imaging if doubtful.
Early guided motion limits stiffness.
Who: Avulsion, crush, nail split, exposed bone.
Technique/Anesthesia: Nail-bed repair, local flap/skin graft if needed.
Time/Stay: 20–60 min; day-case.
Recovery: Dressing changes; protect tip 2–4 w.
Keep part clean, moist (saline-gauze), cool—not directly on ice—bring it.
Usually; depends on matrix injury.
Who: Door-crush, work injuries, paronychia/felon bites.
Technique/Anesthesia: Debridement, drainage, antibiotics; compartment check.
Time/Stay: Variable; often day-case.
Recovery: Elevation and therapy minimize stiffness.
Scar/Lasting: Hidden in bra-line/underwear; long-lasting.
Abscess needs drainage; we decide after exam.
We check/update status when indicated.
Assessment: History, exam, X-ray/US as needed—ring removal, elevation.
Repair/Stabilize: Splinting, closed reduction, microsurgical repair (tendon/nerve/vessel), fixation.
Rehab: Custom splints + hand therapy; return-to-work plan.
Carpal tunnel syndrome · Trigger finger · Dupuytren’s contracture · Ganglion cyst · de Quervain’s tenosynovitis · TFCC/wrist pain (selected)
If you see fat/tendon/nail-bed or function loss → needs evaluation.
Ideally the same day for tendon/nerve issues.
Most do with timely repair and therapy.
Desk in days; manual labor depends on injury/repair.
Kept along relaxed skin lines; silicone/taping improve maturation.
