Distal radius fractures are a major part of my practice, and they are not simple injuries. These fractures involve the wrist joint itself, and small technical details during surgery can have a meaningful impact on long-term wrist function, strength, and pain. Treating these injuries well requires a deep understanding of wrist biomechanics and careful attention to surgical construct design.
Metacarpal fractures are among the most common injuries I treat in my practice. Over the years, I have managed a very large number of hand and metacarpal fractures-many nonoperatively when appropriate, and surgically when clear operative indications are present. When surgery is needed, my goal is always the same: achieve reliable fracture healing while allowing patients to move early and recover as quickly and safely as possible.
As a hand and upper extremity surgeon, bone health is not an abstract concept for me-it is central to how I treat patients every day. I have run a dedicated bone health clinic, and I see firsthand how underlying bone quality directly affects fracture severity, surgical decision-making, healing, and long-term outcomes. This is especially true for patients with distal radius (wrist) fractures, which are often the first warning sign of osteoporosis or osteopenia.
Wrist pain can interfere with work, sports, and everyday life. When symptoms persist despite conservative care, wrist arthroscopy may be recommended to better understand and treat the underlying problem. Wrist arthroscopy in Duluth, GA is a minimally invasive orthopedic surgery option that allows doctors to evaluate and address many wrist conditions with less tissue disruption, less pain, and often a quicker recovery. Under the care of Dr. Thomas Neustein, patients in North Georgia have access to comprehensive wrist care focused on restoring function and improving overall well being.
Cubital Tunnel Syndrome is a condition caused by compression of the ulnar nerve as it travels along the inner side of the elbow. This nerve passes through a narrow space known as the cubital tunnel, commonly associated with the sensation felt when hitting the funny bone. When pressure increases in this area, patients may develop elbow pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness that affects the hand, wrist, and upper extremity.
