Hand & Wrist Surgery

Lone Star Orthopaedics and Spine Specialists offers hand and wrist surgery which is a branch of orthopaedics that deals with an injury or condition in these specific areas. Since the hand and wrist are comprised of multiple small bones and intricate nerves, these two areas are prone to overuse and injury. While many conditions or injuries can be treated without surgery, it is best to consult with a hand surgeon if you are experiencing any pain in your fingers, hand, or wrist.
