Hand Doctor in West Seattle

At OPA Ortho, our qualified hand doctor is able to treat the following conditions.

Hand & Wrist Arthritis

Arthritis can affect joints in both the hands and wrists. 

Arthritis is a painful inflammatory condition that causes the cartilage between the joints to deteriorate at a rapid rate. By working with a hand and wrist doctor in West Seattle, you can slow the onslaught of arthritis and minimize its painful symptoms.

Hand or Wrist Fractures

Fractures in the hands or wrists can occur in one of two ways. 

1. Due to repetitive movement (known as a repetitive stress fracture), this type of fracture occurs when the hand or wrist is moved repeatedly in the same motion and tiny cracks are formed in the hand or wrist bones.
2. Traumatic force fractures: these occur when the hand or wrist sustains a sudden and forceful blow or movement that causes the bones in the wrist or hand to fracture.

If you suspect that you have suffered a hand or wrist fracture, it’s essential that you seek out medical care immediately. Working with an orthopedic specialist in West Seattle will ensure that your hand or wrist fracture is adequately cared for.

Hand or Wrist Joint Dislocation

Joint dislocation is a painful condition that occurs when a joint is suddenly and forcefully displaced (due to sudden movement or a blow). If you suspect that you have dislocated a joint in your hand or wrist, contact a reliable hand doctor in West Seattle immediately.

Carpal Tunnel 

Carpal tunnel is a very serious condition that can greatly affect your ability to use your hands and wrists. Carpal tunnel occurs when the median nerve that runs from the hand to the elbow becomes pinched, you may experience tingling, shooting pain, or numbness anywhere along your wrists or hands.  

There are a number of treatment options available for those who suffer from carpal tunnel, including surgical ones. If you are developing symptoms of early carpal tunnel contact a hand and wrist doctor immediately.

Cysts and Tumors

While not every cyst that forms on the hand or wrist is dangerous, they almost always cause discomfort and are unsightly. If you have become concerned due to the sudden appearance of a cyst or lump on your hand, give OPA Ortho a call.
