Common Symptoms of Hand & Wrist Conditions

Symptoms of hand and wrist conditions can vary widely but often include pain, stiffness, swelling, decreased range of motion, and weakness. These symptoms can affect daily activities and overall quality of life, signaling the need for professional evaluation and treatment.

For instance, carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition, specifically causes numbness, tingling, and pain in the first three fingers and half of the fourth finger, affecting grip strength and fine motor skills. De Quervain's tenosynovitis is another condition leading to pain and tenderness at the base of the thumb, especially when grasping or making a fist.
