Symptoms

Common Symptoms of Hand Injuries

Understanding and recognizing common symptoms of hand injuries is crucial for timely diagnosis and treatment. Typically, these symptoms may include pain, swelling, bruising, clicking or popping sounds, loss of strength, and range of motion. The type and severity of these symptoms can greatly vary depending on the nature of the injury.

Symptom Variability

The wide variability in hand injury symptoms points to the complexity and versatility of our hands. In some cases, you may experience sharp, intense pain immediately after an injury, while gradual, chronic injuries might produce more subtle symptoms, like constant but mild discomfort or the inability to perform specific tasks.

Warning Signs for Professional Help

If you notice persistent pain, increased swelling, numbness, tingling, or if you are unable to move your hand or fingers, these could be warning signs that you need professional help. Prolonged or severe symptoms may indicate serious issues like fractures, nerve damage, dislocation, or other concerns requiring immediate attention.

Contact us today

If you’re experiencing any of the above-mentioned symptoms, don’t wait for them to worsen. Early treatment will help accelerate your recovery and prevent potential long-term problems. Contact us today at Push Pounds Sports Medicine Centre in Toronto for an expert consultation and care plan tailored to you.

Causes

Given how frequently we rely on our hands for countless daily activities, understanding what can potentially harm them is of paramount importance. The causes of hand injuries are diverse and sporadic.

Common Causes of Hand Injuries

These typically involve accidents such as falls, cuts, and burns or repetitive movements leading to overuse injuries. Sports injuries are another common culprit.

Common Factors of Hand Injuries

Risk factors include improper technique when using tools or equipment, lack of protective gear during sports or physically demanding tasks, and prolonged, repetitive motions.

Treatment at Studioathletica Clinic

Push Pounds Sports Medicine Centre: Premier Hand Injury Treatments

At Push Pounds Sports Medicine Centre, we offer an array of treatments for hand injuries. Our team of specialists harness cutting-edge, evidence-based interventions to ensure each patient receives the highest quality care.

Viscosupplementation & Hyaluronic Acid Injection: These are two separate but related treatments which can be very effective for patients suffering from arthritis-related hand injuries. Viscosupplementation helps by introducing extra fluid into the joints to facilitate movement and reduce pain.

Regenerative Medicine: This revolutionary treatment leverages natural growth factors present within the patient’s body to encourage recovery and healing of the injured hand.

Orthopaedic Surgery: When necessary, we offer surgical intervention from seasoned orthopaedic surgeons who specialize in hand procedures.

Specialized Injections:

Our clinic also provides a series of specialized injections, including:

  • Durolane: A single injection treatment to relieve the pain of osteoarthritis in specific small joints.
  • Synvisc: It supplements the fluid in your joint to help lubricate and cushion the joint, and can potentially provide up to six months of osteoarthritis pain relief.
  • Nstride and PRP Injections: Effective biological treatment methods that use your body’s own cells to accelerate the healing.

At Push Pounds, we also believe in the efficacy of complementary therapies such as Chiropractic care, Physiotherapy, RMT Massage, general Massage Therapy and Acupuncture as part of a comprehensive multi-disciplinary approach to the management and recovery from hand injuries.

I had an injury in my disc that was life altering. I had pain 24/7 and I could no longer live my normal life. I couldn’t sit at work, no more sports, gym, exercise and I gained a lot of weight. I went to many physio sessions, chiro’s, RMT, cold bats, etc at other clinics, but I was still in pain. I decided that I needed a real plan to get control over my life. I asked around and I was referred to Studio Pushpounds. My friends indicated NBA players, EPL, NHL players fly and/or come here for treatment when they are in Toronto. If the best of the world trusts this clinic, then it would surely be good enough for me. My doctor was Dr. Darrin Germann. Dr. German is my hero. He spent time to properly diagnose my issue and create a gameplan that was altered after every session based on progression. Every time I entered his room, he was reviewing our notes, and like a mad genius planning out that day’s sessions. He knows each case personally, and I could tell he was invested in my health. And in turn, I put in my 100% efforts to what he wanted me to do not just in the clinic, but outside of it. I’m now back in the gym, swimming, and pain free. If you are dedicated to fixing your problems, I highly recommend you see Dr. Germann. Dr. Germanns character is class, and he is very professional. The man is a stud and a great inspiration and a role model you need when going through injuries. He does what he preaches, and it shows in his own physique and lifestyle in terms of diet and workouts. He is going to do big things in his field and if you are lucky enough to see him for your treatment, he is the miracle you have been looking for. Thank you, Doc., You already know how much my life quality has changed.

The Push Pounds Sports Medicine Team is incredible! We researched four different clinics before choosing Push Pounds and deciding on Josh Irwanto as the main physiotherapist for our teen’s ACL recovery. The attention and level of care from the start of our recovery program was remarkable. Josh and Peter (second physiotherapist team member) took the time to explain the recovery plan while demonstrating compassion and understanding along the complete process. Our child felt motivated, supported and driven to work hard. Our family has immense gratitude towards the Push Pounds team and their knowledge + professionalism towards their patients recovery goals. Our teen is back playing on the field healthier and stronger than ever. A million thanks to Josh and his entire team!

If you’re recovering from an injury of ANY kind, look no further, Push Pounds/Studio Athletica is the ONLY place to go. After a nasty proximal humerus fracture, I was at a loss when it came time to start rehab. After endless searching and coming across Studio Athletica online, I found Physiotherapist Josh and decided to start my healing journey. Josh (alongside every single one of the support staff) has been an integral part of my healing not only physically, but mentally as well. You don’t really know the effects of a bad injury has on your entire wellbeing until it happens to you. And at 35 and never having broken a bone, I thought I was in the clear. ;) Josh’s dedication to my progress each week was what kept my spirits up. He knew when to push me and when not to and provided endless encouragement along the way. Physiotherapy included a combination of treatments on the table as well as mobility and strengthening in the gym. After months of this combo and being diligent about my at-home exercises, I’m confident in saying that I have my arm/shoulder back and I couldn’t be more thrilled. I must add.. during the time I was rehabilitating my shoulder, I had some foot injuries along the way. After an assessment from Josh during an appointment, he said that Chiropractor Dr. Germann was the person I should see. Everything that I said about Josh above can be echoed about Dr. G. Another gem of a human and incredibly knowledgeable about the craft of healing. Safe to say a have two working feet and back to walking many, many km’s a day. Long story short, if you want a dedicated team, top of the line treatment options, and a gym with all the equipment you could ever need, Push Pounds/ Studio Athletica is the place for you.

Late last year I developed achilles pain that was impacting my ability to play high-level sports so I was referred to Dr. Darrin Germann at Push Pounds/Studio Athletica. I saw Dr. Darrin weekly and the sessions were split between gym exercises (the facility is brand-new and has a fully equipped gym with turf) and treatments which allowed for a more holistic approach to my recovery. Dr. Darrin always had a game-plan ready for the day based on how I was feeling that week and adjusted as needed. He got me back on my feet playing on the national team for Ultimate frisbee within 4 months! The entire team is welcoming, friendly and well-organized. I can’t recommend it enough!
