The hand is an elaborate instrument that is both tough and delicate. It is responsible for sensations and motions that allow us to experience and control the world around us. When an injury or condition affects the hand, it can impact your ability to function in a variety of ways. It can also produce cosmetic issues, as some problems can be quite disfiguring. At the Orthopaedic Institute of Ohio, our hand surgery specialists treat a wide range of hand injuries and conditions, restoring both form and function for many of our patients.
