Wrist tendinopathy, hand arthritis, and chronic wrist pain — regenerative options.

The wrist and hand have dozens of small joints and tendons all working together. Chronic pain here is often mistaken for 'just arthritis' when tendon or ligament issues are the real driver. Careful exam and targeted regenerative care make a real difference for many patients.

Understanding wrist & hand pain

Dozens of small joints and tendons working together — pain here is rarely just one thing.

The wrist and hand are among the most mechanically complex areas of the body. Eight carpal bones meet the forearm at the wrist, while multiple tendons and ligaments control fine finger and grip movements. Chronic pain in this area is often dismissed as simple arthritis when tendon irritation, ligament strain, or joint instability is the real driver. At Regenerative Medicine of Raynham, we perform a detailed wrist, hand, and forearm exam to identify the exact structures involved, then use targeted regenerative therapies such as PRP, shockwave, and laser therapy to restore function without relying on repeated medication or premature surgery.
