Nerve Injury in hand, fingers and wrists

Does a Nerve Injury Limit the Use of Your Hand? Let's get you on the path to healing.

Your nerves are important to your sense of touch and to transmit the electrical signals that help move your hands. Damage to the nerves of your hand, wrist, or fingers can leave you with numbness and hand weakness. If you have sustained a nerve injury in a hand, it is important to have your hands examined by a hand and wrist specialist, who has the experience required to effectively diagnose and treat you.

What Are the Causes and Symptoms of Nerve Injuries?

Hand nerve damage may be caused by a variety of problems, including lacerations, inflammation, and chronic conditions. Because your nerves carry both sensory and motor signals to and from your brain, the loss of feeling in your hands or fingers is a common symptom of a nerve injury.

Other symptoms of a nerve injury may include:

  • Tingling or numbness.
  • The inability to move your fingers or part of your hand.
  • Hand weakness or weakened grip.
  • Pain or a burning feeling in your hand of fingers.
