Hand tendons are fibrous structures that connect muscles to bones, allowing for movement of the fingers and wrist. Tendons in the hand are crucial for various functions, including grasping, pinching, and fine motor skills. Tendon injuries in the hand can arise from various causes, including acute trauma, such as cuts or lacerations, which can sever or damage the tendons. Overuse or repetitive strain, often from activities involving repetitive motions, can lead to tendinitis, an inflammation of the tendons, causing pain, swelling, and reduced range of motion. Tendon injuries can also result from conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or other inflammatory diseases, which can weaken or inflame tendons over time.
Treatment for hand tendon injuries depends on the specific type and severity of the injury. For acute injuries, such as tendon lacerations, surgical repair may be necessary to restore function and prevent long-term damage. Post-surgery, rehabilitation involving physical therapy is often required to regain strength and mobility. Tendinitis is typically managed with rest, anti-inflammatory medications, and physical therapy to reduce inflammation and improve tendon function. In cases of chronic tendinitis or overuse injuries, modifying activities to reduce strain on the tendons, along with applying ice and using splints, can help alleviate symptoms. Preventive measures include proper ergonomics, regular stretching, and strengthening exercises to maintain tendon health and reduce the risk of injury. Consulting a healthcare professional is essential for an accurate diagnosis and tailored treatment plan to ensure effective management and recovery from hand tendon injuries.
