Hand conditions
Introduction: Hand conditions
Any condition affecting on or both hands. The hand is made up of numerous components that can be affected by a condition - fingers, thumbs, skin, muscle, nerves and bone. Some examples of hand conditions are fracture, neuropathy, dermatitis and rheumatoid arthritis. Because we use our hands so much, any condition affecting them can impair the ability to carry out day-to-day functions.
