Wrist Pain

Is it carpal tunnel? Pins and needles feeling? Or, is it a constant ache? Maybe you’re experiencing a nagging injury to your finger or thumb that won’t heal. These all lead to different diagnoses and treatment recommendations.

So many of us think that if we have wrist pain it must be carpal tunnel but the fact is often wrist pain is associated with a sprain or strain that never gets the proper time to heal because we depend on our hands. At Flexogenix® we have non-surgical solutions that can treat the following wrist and hand conditions:

  • Arthritis
  • Carpal Tunnel
  • Compartment Syndrome
  • Ulnar Tunnel Syndrome
  • Tendonitis
  • Flexor Tendon Injury
  • Wrist Sprains
  • Thumb Sprains
  • Mallet Finger
Up to 3.1% of Working Adults have had Carpal Tunnel. (CDC 2010)

This advanced regenerative medicine treatment program is also ideal for athletes and the “weekend warrior” who want stay active despite chronic or acute injuries.

Why Non-Surgical First

Orthopedic and sports medicine has made tremendous advancements over the past decade. These advancements are cleared by the FDA and provide new options for patients to help them harness their body’s natural healing potential. Another major benefit our non-surgical approach offers is little-to-no downtime. We encourage patients to explore these options before going under the knife and through an exhaustive rehabilitation process.
