This infographic presents six frequently encountered hand (and wrist) orthopedic conditions and outlines typical treatment paths for each. Conditions included are things like nerve-compression syndromes (e.g., carpal tunnel), tendon disorders (such as trigger finger), osteoarthritis of the hand/wrist joints, fractures and ligament injuries, overuse-related tenosynovitis, and ganglion cysts.

For each condition the infographic explains what causes it (for example repetitive motion, wear-and-tear, trauma) and then what treatment options are available — ranging from non-invasive interventions (splints, activity modification, physical therapy, injections) to surgical solutions when the problem is advanced or conservative care fails. The visual emphasises early diagnosis and treatment: catching problems sooner often means less invasive care, faster recovery and better long-term function.

It also underlines that the hand is a complex system and losing function impacts daily life significantly. The message: if you’re experiencing persistent hand or wrist discomfort, recognising the issue early and talking to a specialist increases your chance of good recovery.
