Comprehensive Wrist Care

At Golden State Orthopedics & Spine, we are dedicated to providing exceptional care for patients with wrist injuries and conditions. The wrist is a complex joint that allows for the mobility and strength required for everyday tasks and activities. Because of its structure and frequent use, the wrist is especially vulnerable to injury and chronic conditions. Our team of wrist doctors combines advanced expertise with a patient-first approach, helping you restore function, reduce pain, and return to the activities you enjoy.

When Should I Seek Treatment From a Wrist Doctor?

Not all wrist problems require surgery, but delaying care can increase the risk of long-term complications. Our wrist doctors evaluate each patient individually and recommend the most effective, least invasive approach possible.

Individuals experiencing wrist issues may notice symptoms such as:

  • Persistent wrist pain or stiffness
  • Swelling, bruising, or tenderness
  • Numbness or tingling in the hand or fingers
  • Weakness or difficulty gripping objects
  • Pain with twisting, bending, or repetitive motion
  • Limited range of motion or locking
  • Lingering discomfort after an injury

If you experience any of these symptoms, it may indicate one of the following wrist conditions:

  • Arthritis
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Dislocations
  • Fractures
  • Ganglion cysts
  • Kienböck’s disease
  • Sprains & strains
  • Tendonitis
  • Repetitive stress injuries
