Wrist
As the region's most preferred orthopedic practice, OrthoArizona has a team of wrist specialists who are exceptional experts and leaders in diagnosing and treating wrist injuries and conditions.
Wrist pain can significantly affect your daily activities, from simple tasks like typing to engaging in sports and hobbies. The wrist is a complex joint, so early diagnosis and intervention are essential for effective treatment and preventing future complications. Consulting a wrist specialist allows for a comprehensive evaluation to pinpoint the source of your pain, whether it stems from traumatic injuries, repetitive strain, or degenerative conditions.
No matter the type of wrist-related problem, seeking medical care from a professional who can accurately diagnose the injury or condition is crucial. Our wrist specialists are experts with extensive training and experience, dedicated to offering personalized treatment options to restore function and improve your quality of life.
When Is It Time to Seek Care From an Expert?
Finding out when to see a wrist specialist is important for timely intervention. Consider scheduling an appointment if you experience any of the following symptoms:
- Weakness or instability in your wrist
- Persistent pain or swelling in your wrist or hand
- Limited range of motion or stiffness in your wrist
- Tingling, numbness, or burning sensation in your hand or fingers
- Difficulty gripping objects or performing tasks requiring wrist mobility
- Visible deformity or misalignment of your wrist

Our wrist specialists are well-equipped to diagnose and treat a wide range of wrist injuries and conditions, including:
- Arthritis
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Cubital tunnel syndrome
- De Quervain's syndrome
- Fractures and dislocations
- Ganglion cysts
- Ligament injuries (sprains, tears)
- Sports-related wrist injuries

Our team of specialty-trained wrist specialists offers a comprehensive range of treatments, including:
