Hand & Wrist Pain
The extent to which we rely on the proper functioning of our hands and wrists cannot be understated. Every day, the dexterity and movement of our hands and wrists are relied on to button buttons, zip zippers, cook and eat food, and just about everything else we do on a daily basis. That is why hand or wrist pain can be so disruptive.
The providers at Core Medical Center seek not only to relieve your immediate symptoms – but to identify the underlying cause of your hand or wrist pain, so you experience lasting relief.
Common Causes of Hand & Wrist Pain

- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- deQuervain’s tendonitis
- Fractures
- Ganglion cysts
- Gout
- Kienbock’s disease
- Ligament disruption
- Scaphoid fracture

Repetitive stress injuries are among the most common reasons for hand or wrist pain. This includes tendonitis, when tendons that connect muscle to bone become irritated and swollen, causing soreness and pain.
If you think you may have suffered a repetitive stress injury affecting your hands or wrists, you may have one or more of the following symptoms:
- Pain
- Numbness
- Tingling
- Weakness
- Perpetually cold fingers
- Difficulty gripping, holding, or lifting items with your hands
