Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery

The hand is built from small, tightly packed structures, including tendons, nerves, blood vessels, joints and bone, all working together. An injury that looks minor on the surface can still stop a finger from bending, and this is why hand injuries are best examined early by a surgeon who works with hands regularly.

For patients seeking hand reconstructive surgery in Mumbai, Apex begins with an examination of tendon, nerve and blood supply, with X-rays to look for fractures. Decisions depend on the pattern of injury, the person's work and which hand they use. Surgery is only part of the plan, because hand therapy often decides how much movement and strength return.

Risks include stiffness, scar tenderness, incomplete return of sensation, infection and the need for further surgery. Nerve recovery is slow, often measured in months, and may be incomplete. Full movement can take a long time to return.
