The human hand is an intricate instrument that is both tough and delicate. Its functions of
sensations and motion allow us to experience and control the world around us.
The tendons of the thumb and each of the fingers pass
through a sheath on the palm side of the hand. Certain diseases and overuse
activities can cause a thickening of this sheath. As the tendon passes through
a thickened sheath, the tendon eventually becomes irritated and swells. Pain,
catching and eventually locking of the finger will occur. Early treatment
consists of anti-inflammatory medication or Cortisone injection. If these fail
to provide relief, the sheath is opened surgically through a small incision at
the base of the finger.
This disorder is a thickening of a ligament in the palm,
resulting in nodules on the ligament which, if severe enough, can cause an
inability to fully straighten the fingers. The ring and small fingers are the
fingers most commonly involved.
The cause of this disorder is unknown. It is seen more commonly in men and is usually found in individuals
of northern European extraction.
If deformity is mild and there is no functional loss, no surgery is needed. If, however, there is
significant contracture that interferes with full use of the hand, surgical
removal of a portion of the ligament is the treatment of choice to improve
function and to prevent further deformity.
Tendonitis on the thumb side of the wrist can be a very
painful and disabling condition. Simple pinching and twisting activities can be
almost impossible. The tendons to the thumb become inflamed as they pass under
a ligament and the slightest motion of the wrist can cause pain.
Treatment consists of rest, medication and occasionally the use of a steroid injection. If these
treatments do not provide relief over time, the tendons can be surgically
released.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common hand problem resulting
from pressure on the median nerve at the wrist. Symptoms, which are often worse
at night, consist of numbness and/or pain in the wrist and fingers. Eventually
there is loss of strength, fine motor control and sensation.
