The hand and fingers are our tactile senses with which we can grasp objects and with which we feel. Unfortunately, hand disorders are relatively common and can spontaneously emerge. A hand condition can be caused by a fall, overload, birth defect or illness. Complaints about the hand can hinder your daily life. Try a brace on hand to reduce your symptoms.

Causes hand disorder

The hand is widely used in everyday life in many types of activities. For example, it can sometimes occur that a fracture or injury occurs after a fall during sports, for example during skiing (ski thumb ). It can also happen that muscles or tendons are affected. The muscle can stretch or tear.

A hand disorder can also be caused by a much repeated movement. This is often referred to as a chronic condition. Think of rheumatism or a form of rheumatism: arthrosis .
