Peripheral Nervous System Surgeries
The peripheral nervous system, which includes all nerves outside the brain and spinal cord, can be affected by various conditions like nerve injuries and entrapments. Our team specializes in surgeries that aim to restore function, alleviate pain, and improve the quality of life in patients with peripheral nervous system disorders.
Our clinic specializes in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition caused by pressure on the median nerve within the wrist’s carpal tunnel. Symptoms often include numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand and arm. We offer both non-surgical and surgical treatments, with the latter being carpal tunnel release surgery. This procedure involves cutting the band of tissue in the wrist that crosses the median nerve to reduce pressure and alleviate symptoms. Our goal is to restore normal function and minimize discomfort for our patients.
We provide comprehensive care for cubital tunnel syndrome, a condition characterized by increased pressure on the ulnar nerve that passes through the cubital tunnel in the elbow. Symptoms can include numbness, tingling, and pain in the forearm and fingers, particularly the ring and small fingers. Our team utilizes a variety of treatment options, from conservative approaches to surgical intervention. In cases requiring surgery, cubital tunnel release or ulnar nerve transposition can be performed to relieve pressure and reduce symptoms, ultimately improving the patient’s quality of life.
