If you’ve recently experienced a hand fracture, such as a metacarpal or phalangeal fracture, you may be wondering about treatment options.
Hand fractures can be caused by a variety of factors such as falls, sports injuries, or motor vehicle accidents. Symptoms may include pain, swelling, bruising, and difficulty moving the affected finger or hand.
Treatment for hand fractures will depend on the severity of the injury. In some cases, a splint or cast may be used to immobilize the affected area and allow it to heal. In more severe cases, surgery may be necessary to realign the bone and stabilize the fracture.
After treatment, physical therapy may be recommended to help improve range of motion, strength, and function in the affected hand. It’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for recovery and rehabilitation to ensure the best possible outcomes.
