Hand Surgery
With extensive experience as a hand specialist, Rikki Mistry provides comprehensive hand surgery for both functional and pain‑relief needs. From Dupuytren's contracture and trigger finger release to carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, excision of ganglion cyst, Guyon canal release surgery, and joint or thumb replacements, he offers advanced treatments tailored to each patient’s needs, including steroid injections for finger pain.
Dupuytren's Contracture
Dupuytren’s contracture surgery releases thickened tissue in the palm that pulls fingers into a bent position. The goal is to straighten the fingers and restore hand function, making everyday tasks easier. It’s recommended for people whose bent fingers interfere with their grip or daily activities.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel release surgery relieves pressure on the median nerve in the wrist by opening the carpal tunnel. This helps reduce pain, tingling, and numbness in the hand, often improving grip strength. It’s recommended for people with persistent symptoms that affect sleep, work, or daily function.
Cubital Tunnel Syndrome
Cubital tunnel release surgery eases pressure on the ulnar nerve at the elbow, which can cause numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. The procedure improves nerve function and reduces discomfort. It’s suited for patients whose symptoms haven’t improved with non-surgical treatments.
Trigger Finger Release
This procedure involves releasing the tight tendon sheath that causes a finger to catch or lock when bent. It restores smooth finger movement and relieves pain or stiffness. It’s ideal for patients who struggle with painful clicking or inability to straighten the affected finger.
Rheumatoid Arthritis
Joint Replacement
Joint replacement for rheumatoid arthritis involves replacing severely damaged joints with artificial implants to relieve pain and restore mobility. It helps improve hand function and slow further joint deformity. It’s best for people with advanced rheumatoid arthritis whose pain and stiffness limit daily activities.
Ganglion Excision
Ganglion excision removes a fluid-filled cyst that forms near a joint or tendon, often causing pain, swelling, or restricted movement. Surgery aims to relieve discomfort and reduce the risk of the cyst returning. It’s an option when the cyst is painful or interferes with movement.
Base of Thumb
Joint Replacement
This procedure replaces the arthritic joint at the base of the thumb with an artificial implant. It aims to relieve pain, improve grip, and restore thumb mobility, making tasks like writing or opening jars easier. It’s suited for patients with advanced arthritis unresponsive to non-surgical treatments.
Guyon’s Canal Release
This surgery relieves pressure on the ulnar nerve as it passes through Guyon’s canal in the wrist. It reduces numbness, tingling, and weakness in the ring and little finger. It’s recommended for patients with nerve compression that doesn’t improve with conservative care.
Steroid Injections
in Finger Joints
Steroid injections deliver anti-inflammatory medication directly into finger joints to reduce pain, swelling, and stiffness. Relief can last for weeks or months, improving hand function and comfort. They’re ideal for patients with arthritis or other inflammatory conditions looking for a non-surgical option.
