What is Hand Surgery?
Hand surgery is a term that covers a wide range of different surgeries on the hand, from plastic surgery to restore the cosmetic appearance to surgeries meant to restore the function of the hand. Surgery on the hand can aim to relieve inflammation, and pain, repair tendons and nerves, or correct a deformity or injury.
Depending on the symptoms, underlying causes, and nature of the injury or disease, there are several surgical options available.
