Nerve Entrapment Surgeries at JS Hospitals

 

At JS Hospitals, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of nerve entrapment syndromes, which occur when a nerve is compressed or irritated, often causing pain, numbness, or restricted movement. Our expert surgeons provide advanced surgical solutions to relieve nerve compression and restore normal function. Below are the key nerve entrapment conditions we treat:

1. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by the compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. This condition commonly affects individuals who perform repetitive hand movements, such as typing or using tools.

Symptoms:

  • Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and half of the ring finger.
  • Weakness in hand grip and difficulty holding objects.
  • Pain radiating to the forearm or shoulder.

Surgical Treatment:

Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery:

  • The procedure involves cutting the transverse carpal ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve.
  • Performed using traditional open surgery or minimally invasive endoscopic techniques for faster recovery.

2. Trigger Finger Syndrome

What is Trigger Finger?
Trigger finger occurs when the tendons in the fingers or thumb become inflamed or develop nodules, leading to difficulty in bending and straightening the fingers. It is also known as stenosing tenosynovitis.

Symptoms:

  • Pain and stiffness in the affected finger, especially in the morning.
  • A snapping or popping sensation when moving the finger.
  • The finger may become locked in a bent position.

Surgical Treatment:

Trigger Finger Release Surgery:

  • The surgeon releases the constricted part of the tendon sheath to allow smooth tendon movement.
  • Performed as a day-care procedure with quick recovery and minimal scarring.

3. De Quervain’s Syndrome

What is De Quervain’s Syndrome?
De Quervain’s syndrome involves inflammation of the tendons on the thumb side of the wrist, leading to pain and difficulty moving the thumb and wrist. It is often caused by repetitive wrist and thumb movements or overuse.

Symptoms:

  • Pain and swelling near the base of the thumb.
  • Difficulty grasping or pinching objects.
  • Pain that worsens with wrist movement.

Surgical Treatment:

De Quervain’s Release Surgery:

  • The procedure involves releasing the tight sheath around the affected tendons to reduce friction and inflammation.
  • Minimally invasive techniques ensure rapid recovery and restored functionality.
