Common causes of hand pain

There are many reasons why you may be experiencing hand pain. The following are some of the most common causes of hand pain:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

The carpal tunnel is a narrow canal on your wrist that runs beneath your hand’s palm. It is in charge of protecting the median nerve and the tendons that allow you to bend your fingers.

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is under too much pressure. The carpal tunnel becomes irritated as a result of this pressure.

Numbness, stiffness, or discomfort in your fingers, hands, wrists, or forearms is possible.

New You Health and Wellness will treat your carpal tunnel syndrome without surgery in a safe and comfortable manner.

Nerve injuries

There’s a good chance you’ll notice if one of the nerves that run through your hand is injured! You might feel numbness, tingling, or a loss of temperature.

In cases of severe nerve injury, muscle function is disrupted, and paralysis can occur. Furthermore, nerve injuries are usually the result of overuse and are accompanied by edema. Swelling reduces the nerve’s ability to function properly by obstructing proper circulation.

Tendinitis

Tendinitis is referred to as an “overuse injury” because it occurs gradually over time. This condition occurs when tendons become inflamed, resulting in swelling and pain, particularly when the affected area is moved.

Fracture

Falls commonly cause hand fractures. This is due to the fact that the natural reaction is to try to catch yourself. The fingers, wrist, and elbow may become extremely stiff during the healing process. This can result in a decrease in strength and range of motion.

Finding hand pain relief in physical therapy

For those suffering from pain in their hands, physical therapy and hand therapy can help to support healthier joint function in a variety of ways.

  • It extends your range of motion. Physical therapy is an excellent way to increase your range of motion, which in turn promotes optimal joint functionality.
  • Therapy increases muscle strength, which helps to support your joints. Weakness in the surrounding muscles can put extra strain on your joints, causing joint pain even with minor movements like writing or picking up an object.
  • It uses specialized treatments to alleviate your pain. Hot and cold therapy and therapeutic massage help to relieve hand pain. These techniques are widely used by hand therapists.
  • Physical therapists are skilled at pinpointing the source of joint pain. An environmental factor may occasionally cause hand pain. Working with an experienced physical therapist can help you figure out what’s causing your pain.
