Hand and wrist pain is most often due to sudden injuries like sprains and strains. Long-term problems, such as repetitive motions, arthritis in the joints, and carpal tunnel syndrome, and genetic conditions can also be the reason for the pain you’re experiencing.
When it comes to treating the hands and wrists, seeing a specialist will help you get the best results, as both areas are complex and need that specialized attention. Even the most minor injuries and conditions will best benefit from a hand and wrist specialist.
