Hand & Wrist Specialist
When wrist/hand pain occurs over a long period
If any parts of the wrist, including the bones, ligaments, or tendons, become injured, it can lead to wrist pain that could last longer.
Limited ability to move your wrist / hand
If you have severe pain, deformity, numbness, or are unable to move your wrist/hand, you should call your doctor for an immediate appointment or go to an urgent care clinic.
