Hand and Wrist
Our hands are very important. We use them to eat, get dressed, write, work, create art, and do many everyday tasks. To do all of this, our hands need to feel (sensation) and move properly, which includes our joints, tendons, and muscles working together.
Most people don’t think much about their hands, wrists, and arms until something goes wrong. An injury or condition can cause pain or make it hard to move. When that happens, you quickly realize how important these body parts are for almost everything you do.
