The wrist joint enables the hand to make a wide range of movements. It is supported by ligaments and tendons that provide stability and facilitate smooth movements. The wrist joint is crucial to a number of activities that involve grasping, lifting and other fine motor activities. A number of conditions, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, can severely impact the functionality of the wrist.
Are you experiencing any of the following types of chronic discomfort in your wrist?
Many patients try the following treatments for wrist discomfort and typically experience temporary, but not lasting, results.
These treatments serve as coping strategies to deal with the pain, but do little to nothing to reverse the underlying causes of the discomfort.
Care for wrist discomfort begins with a thorough office examination. We use a hands-on approach to understand the nature and location of your discomfort. If needed, we review imaging of the affected area.
A typical care plan begins with an injection of a protein derived from your blood plasma. The injection reduces inflammation in the joint and slows tissue degeneration.
Over the next six weeks you receive several laser and acoustic compression therapies on the joint to stimulate blood vessel formation and tissue rejuvenation. Additionally, you receive an injection of your own stem cells collected from your bone marrow to encourage the rejuvenation of healthy tissue.
At your six month check up you receive another injection of platelet-rich plasma, drawn from your blood, to increase healthy proteins in the affected area that encourage cell and tissue growth. The entire process puts your wrist in the best position possible to repair itself.
The longer you let this go on, the more difficult things get.
