Wrist and Hand Fractures

Most people use their hands on a daily basis for a variety of tasks. An injury to the wrist or hand can be very painful and limiting to our daily activities. Employment can be impacted if a person suffers a serious hand or wrist fracture. Many standard daily events, such as dressing, preparing meals, doing laundry, typing, and writing may be difficult and time consuming. The majority people who suffer from wrist and hand fractures are young children and the elderly. Sports injuries and falling on an outstretched arm are two of the main causes of a broken hand or wrist.
There are many tiny bones that create the hand and wrist. The following is a short list of injuries that can occur to the fragile bones in the hand and wrist.

Metacarpal fracture- fracture to the small metacarpal bones in the hand.

Fractured fingers- break in one or more of the bones in the finger.

Colles fracture- a fracture in the main bone in the radius or the ulna, both located in the lower arm.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome- expansion of tendons in the wrist resulting in pain to the hand.
