Hand and small-joint pain can interfere with essential everyday activities like gripping, writing, typing, and manual work. Persistent swelling, stiffness, or joint pain can stem from ligament strains, cartilage damage, arthritis, or repetitive stress.

What Is Hand Arthroscopy?

Common conditions treated include:
- Thumb basilar joint arthritis (CMC joint)
- Small-joint ligament tears and instability
- Inflammatory synovitis of hand joints
- Loose bodies or intra-articular bone fragments
- Post-traumatic joint stiffness and scar contractures
