Every time you use your hand for something, the wrist is involved in some or the other form- like pulling, pushing, lifting, rotation etc. and the wrist joint displays exceptional movement and dexterity. The wrist can however get affected if you get it injured or have a bad fall or break some bone in it. It can also get affected if there is repetitive strain on it &#8211; in the form of motions that are performed many times in a day. The wear and tear accumulates over years and can cause the joint to get brittle and weak. Wrist surgeries are normally only recommended when all other options of pain and joint management have stopped working.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h5><b>Types of Wrist Issues<\/b><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some well known and pretty common conditions that affect the wrist include-\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) &#8211; The median nerve which passes through the carpal tunnel in your wrist gets compressed and can be super painful and hard to manage. Wrist surgery to decompress the nerve may be a good idea if you are not doing well with other non-surgical treatments.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fractures of the wrist- If the scaphoid bone or radius breaks, then surgery becomes necessary. Our specialists perform scaphoid fracture surgery using minimally invasive methods, which provide better outcomes and reduce recovery time substantially. Wrist plate surgery (volar plate fixation) is also performed in some other cases, when the radius gets fractured and plates need to be screwed into place, so that the bones can then heal properly. The plates are then removed after some time.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For arthritis and tendonitis- Inflammatory conditions of the joints and tendons can lead to bad pain, stiffness and poor joint mobility.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Injuries to ligaments in the wrist can also be very painful and require careful treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ganglion cysts<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h5><b>Surgical Procedures for Wrist Issues<\/b><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different procedures used by doctors to help relieve your symptoms. Some of them have been explained in detail, below-<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Wrist Fracture Surgery can involve 3 types<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; internal fixation, external fixation and bone grafting respectively. This surgery is recommended when there is a break in the scaphoid bone or the distal radius.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &#8211; to decompress the median nerve. It can be done using minimally invasive, endoscopic surgery or using open surgery methods too. Minimally invasive surgery is better as it promises quicker healing and better outcomes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Arthroscopic Wrist Surgery <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Minimally invasive surgeries to repair ligaments, cartilage, remove inflamed synovial tissue or repair the triangular fibrocartilage complex after serious injuries work well in most cases.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Arthrodesis of Wrist or Wrist Fusion<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; This method is only done when joint replacement is not a viable option. The bones of the wrist are fused, using plates, screws and rods, in place of the joint itself. This means normal movement will no longer be present and this is normally only done in severely arthritic patients.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Arthroplasty or wrist replacement surgery<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is done when any severe injury occurs or if a person has a major degenerative condition. The affected wrist joint is removed and then replaced with an artificial implant.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ganglion cysts <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">are benign, fluid filled sacs in the wrist area. If there are too many of them or one is too large, it can cause a lot of pain. Cyst removal is then recommended.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Ligament tears and ruptured tendons<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can also be repaired &#8211; either using sutures or grafts from the patient\u2019s own body.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h5><b>Recovery from Wrist Surgery<\/b><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recovery depends on how severe your condition was and what sort of procedure was used to deal with it. As mentioned, minimally invasive procedures mean lesser recovery times and lower risk of developing complications. The incisions are also much smaller, so there is not much scarring either. The recovery phase after getting wrist surgery done can be divided into different parts-<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will be asked to rest and to keep the wrist immobile using a splint, cast or brace, which will need to be worn for a long period of time.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pain medications, ice therapy and physical therapy come next- to help improve joint function, strength and mobility.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can slowly return to your daily routine but you should not lift anything too heavy or perform any high impact movements for a while.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ul><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In general, wrist pain and related issues get way better after proper treatment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At SBJI,\u00a0 we have some of the best orthopedic surgeons specializing in hand and wrist injury management in Hyderabad. We understand that getting surgery done is a major decision. While most surgeries these days can be done using minimally invasive methods, at times, it may not be feasible. Your doctor will examine you and then come up with a treatment plan that will work for you in the long run. Even if it involves open surgery, don\u2019t worry. You will heal a little later than usual, but recovery and being pain free take priority, rather than who heals faster right?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6b96ae9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"6b96ae9\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b4965ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b4965ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 08-05-2024 *\/\n.elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}<\/style><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-238d75f elementor-widget elementor-widget-accordion\" data-id=\"238d75f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"accordion.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 08-05-2024 *\/\n.elementor-accordion{text-align:start}.elementor-accordion .elementor-accordion-item{border:1px solid #d5d8dc}.elementor-accordion .elementor-accordion-item+.elementor-accordion-item{border-top:none}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title{margin:0;padding:15px 20px;font-weight:700;line-height:1;cursor:pointer;outline:none}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon{display:inline-block;width:1.5em}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon svg{width:1em;height:1em}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon.elementor-accordion-icon-right{float:right;text-align:right}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon.elementor-accordion-icon-left{float:left;text-align:left}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon .elementor-accordion-icon-closed{display:block}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon .elementor-accordion-icon-opened,.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title.elementor-active .elementor-accordion-icon-closed{display:none}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title.elementor-active .elementor-accordion-icon-opened{display:block}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-content{display:none;padding:15px 20px;border-top:1px solid #d5d8dc}@media (max-width:767px){.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title{padding:12px 15px}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-title .elementor-accordion-icon{width:1.2em}.elementor-accordion .elementor-tab-content{padding:7px 15px}}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-accordion,.e-con>.elementor-widget-accordion{width:var(--container-widget-width);--flex-grow:var(--container-widget-flex-grow)}<\/style>\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-accordion-item\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-title-3721\" class=\"elementor-tab-title\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"button\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-3721\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-accordion-title\" tabindex=\"0\"> Are wrist surgeries risky?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-3721\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"1\" role=\"region\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-3721\"><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Like any other surgery, there is a slight risk of developing blood clots, reacting poorly to anaesthesia, infection, nerve damage or stiffness after getting it done.
