Specialised Treatments for Hand Conditions

We believe in a patient-first approach. This means we explore every avenue - from conservative, non-surgical management to the latest minimally invasive hand surgery techniques - finding the right path for your recovery. 

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the wrist. This often leads to numbness, "pins and needles," and weakness in the hand. We offer comprehensive care for CTS:

  • Non-Surgical Treatments for Carpal Tunnel: For many patients, relief can be found without surgery. We provide specialist splinting advice, lifestyle modifications, and corticosteroid injections to reduce inflammation and alleviate symptoms.

  • Ultrasound-Guided Carpal Tunnel Decompression Surgery: If symptoms persist or are severe, a minor surgical procedure can provide a permanent solution. This routine operation releases the pressure on the nerve. Performed under local anaesthetic through a tiny puncture at the wrist, the operation avoids stitches, tourniquets, and hospital theatres. Most patients use their hand immediately and return to normal activity within 24 hours.

Trigger Finger & Thumb

Trigger finger is a condition where your finger or thumb clicks, catches, or becomes locked in a bent position. This is caused by inflammation of the tendon sheath.

  • Non-Surgical Treatments for Trigger Finger: A corticosteroid (steroid) injection is delivered into or around the tendon sheath to reduce inflammation and allow the tendon to glide freely again. This treatment can reduce pain and swelling, restore smoother finger movement and reduce clicking or locking, prevent progression of symptoms, and in many cases avoid the need for surgery.

  • Trigger Finger Surgery: When conservative treatments like rest or injections no longer work, Trigger Finger Release surgery is a highly effective, quick procedure. It allows the tendon to glide freely again, restoring smooth, painless movement to the finger. Because the procedure is so precise and minimally invasive, recovery is simple and almost effortless. Finger movement often improves immediately, with strength and comfort continuing to improve over the following weeks.
