Common hand injuries |
|
|
The hand consists of 27 bones including the 8 bones of the wrist. There are also associated structures such as
muscles, ligaments, tendons, and cartilage - This complex structure can lead to a variety of injuries and traumas.
Almost 10% of hospital emergency visits are due to hand injuries, with around 50% caused by blunt trauma.
Hand fractures usually occur in any of the small bones of the hand, these can be treated with a simple cast,
however in some cases hand fractures may require surgery.
