Elbow, Wrist & Hand

Elbow, Wrist & Hand Pain

We use our elbows, wrists and hands an incredible number of times during the day for activities of daily living, work and play. With how much we rely on our upper extremities, it’s no wonder that painful conditions develop. When this pain interferes with your daily living, it’s time to consult your physician.

Pain in the elbow, wrist or hand can follow trauma or from various medical conditions. Arthritis, ligament and tendon injuries can produce elbow pain. Tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis), can affect those who play tennis or do activities involving repetitive motion of the elbow. Radial nerve impingement produces a similar pain. Golfer’s elbow affects the medial epicondyle bone and nerves. The wrist can become painful from overuse, which can be due to typing on the computer, but is likely not the source of carpal tunnel syndrome. The hand and fingers also can be affected by painful conditions, including arthritis and trigger finger.
