Hand deformity correction treatment is often required when finger joints shift, bend abnormally, or lose natural movement. Dr Nikita Shetty assesses the structural and functional aspects of the hand before suggesting intervention. For most patients, it is not just about appearance. It is about regaining the ability to grip, write, or perform routine tasks without strain.
Deformities may arise from arthritis of the hand, tendon injuries, ligament damage, or improperly healed fractures. Left untreated, they can worsen and reduce joint flexibility permanently.
Common Causes
- Rheumatoid arthritis
- Old finger fractures
- Tendon injuries of the hand
- Joint instability
Treatment Options
- Splinting to maintain alignment
- Anti-inflammatory therapy
- Reconstructive or corrective surgery when needed
- Hand therapy to restore range of motion
Dr Nikita Shetty plans hand deformity correction treatment with a focus on restoring balance between joints, tendons, and nerves. If changes in hand shape or movement are affecting your daily routine in Parel, scheduling a consultation can provide clarity and structured treatment guidance.
