Conditions
Ladan Hajipour deals with a variety of hand and wrist conditions, including all aspects of soft tissue, bone and joint disorders of the hand and wrist.
Hand Conditions (A-Z)
Base of Thumb Arthritis
This occurs as the articular cartilage is lost across the joint and therefore the two ends of the bone rub over each other and lead to pain.
Carpal Tunnel
A condition where pressure on one of the main nerves to the hand (the Median nerve) leads to uncomfortable pins and needles sensations in the hand.
Cubital Tunnel
Cubital tunnel syndrome is compression or irritation of the ulnar nerve, which is located in a tunnel on the inside of the elbow.
De Quervain’s Disease
De Quervain’s Disease is synovitis or inflammation around the thumb tendons.
Digital Mucous Cyst
A small fluid-filled cyst that occurs at the end finger joint (DIP joint), on the back of the hand close to the base of the nail.
Dupuytren’s Disease
Dupuytren’s Disease is a genetic condition that can lead to a finger contracture over time.
Finger Arthritis
Finger arthritis develops when the cartilage between the 2 moving bones have been damaged.
Finger Fractures
There are different types of finger fractures, which is when one or more of the bones (phalanges) breaks.
Ganglion Cyst
Ganglion cysts are fluid-filled swellings which usually develop near a finger joint.
Hand Fracture
Fractures of the hand can occur in the small bones of the fingers (phalanges) or the long bones (metacarpals).
Mallet Finger
