Hand and wrist pain can make even simple tasks frustrating or painful. Whether you’re typing at work, cooking at home, or enjoying a favorite hobby, this type of discomfort can affect your quality of life.
At Impact Medical Group, our team is here to help you find lasting relief through personalized, expert care.
Common Symptoms You May Be Experiencing
Hand and wrist pain can vary widely. You may feel:
- Sharp or shooting pain during movement
- Aching or stiffness, especially in the morning
- Numbness or tingling in the fingers
- Weak grip or reduced hand strength
- Swelling or tenderness in the wrist or hand
- Pain that radiates up the forearm
These symptoms may stem from strain, medical conditions, or trauma, such as car or truck accident injuries. A thorough evaluation is the first step toward relief.
What Causes Hand and Wrist Pain?
Pain can result from injuries, overuse, or chronic conditions. Some of the most common causes include:
- Fractures and dislocations
- Sprains and strains
- Tendonitis, tenosynovitis, and bursitis
- Traumatic injuries: Severe and sudden injuries to bones, joints, or soft tissues, often caused by accidents such as falls, sports injuries, or car and truck accidents.
- Tendon or ligament tears (e.g., rotator cuff tears or ACL tears)
- Severe contusions (bruises)
- Ganglion cysts
- Nerve entrapment (such as carpal tunnel syndrome)
- Osteoarthritis
- Inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis
Accurate diagnosis is key to effective treatment. That’s why we start with a thorough assessment.

Our expert team specializes in spine, ankle, elbow, knee, hip, shoulder, hand, and wrist procedures, as well as fracture treatment, articular cartilage restoration, and joint replacement. We focus on personalized solutions and leading techniques to deliver the best possible outcomes.
Our Diagnostic Process
We use advanced tools to pinpoint the exact source of your pain, which may include:
- X-rays to assess bone alignment or fractures
- MRI scans to view soft tissue damage
- Ultrasound for real-time tendon and joint movement
- Diagnostic arthroscopy for minimally invasive joint evaluation
If you have already had imaging done elsewhere, we offer a no-cost MRI consultation for second opinions.
Non-Surgical Treatment Options
In many cases, surgery is not necessary. We offer several effective, conservative treatments, including:
- Physical therapy to restore strength and movement
- Splinting or casting to support healing
- Medication to reduce pain and inflammation
- Targeted injections for precise pain relief
- Activity modification to prevent further injury
Every treatment plan is tailored to your individual condition and lifestyle.
Surgical Care When Needed

- Minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery to repair tissue or remove scar tissue
