Category: Conditions We Treat

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Posted on: | Category:

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can significantly affect everyday life by causing pain, numbness, and tingling in the hands and fingers. Simple tasks like typing, writing, cooking, or opening jars become difficult and uncomfortable. Persistent discomfort may disrupt sleep, reduce productivity at work, and limit hobbies that require hand use.

Skiers Thumb / Gamekeeper’s Thumb
Posted on: | Category:

Skiers Thumb, also known as Gamekeeper’s Thumb, is an injury to the ligament on the inside of the thumb at its base. This ligament is called the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL). The injury occurs when the thumb is forced backwards or outwards, overstretching or tearing the ligament. The UCL is essential for pinch, strength and grip stability, so injury can significantly affect everyday activities.

Distal Radius fracture
Posted on: | Category:

Distal radius fractures are among the most common fractures, accounting for up to one third of all fractures treated in emergency departments. Whilst many are straightforward and resolve with conservative management, some are more complex and require specialist intervention to ensure a full return to everyday function.
