Hand pain can tell you a lot about what’s going on.

Pain at the base of the thumb might be arthritis or de Quervain’s tendinitis. 👍🏻

Pain along the palm and fingers often points to tendonitis, which can lead to trigger finger. And pain near the pinky side of the wrist could mean ligament tears. ✋🏼

Have hand or wrist pain? Dr. David Ratliff and the Modern Orthopaedics team can help figure it out. 💡

Just 2 weeks after Jiffy Knee surgery and already walking without a cane or walker!

 The results speak for themselves. Faster recovery, less pain, and getting back to life sooner.

Splint vs. cast vs. brace: What’s the difference? 🩹

👉🏽 A splint is rigid on one side and allows swelling after an injury or surgery.
👉🏽 A cast is hard all around and offers the most support, perfect for stabilizing fractures.
👉🏽 A brace uses Velcro and metal, is easy to remove, and still lets you move a bit — great for later stages of healing.

Not sure which one you need? Dr. David Ratliff and the Modern Orthopaedics team can guide you through it!

Waking up with numb fingers? 😴

Numbness in your pinky and ring finger might be more than just sleeping funny; it could be cubital tunnel syndrome, caused by pressure on the ulnar (funny bone) nerve at your elbow.

🖐️ Left untreated, it can lead to muscle weakness in your hand.
