Surgery of the Hand is an essential specialty for the treatment of conditions affecting this crucial part of the body. At Life Clinic, we are passionately dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic, inflammatory, degenerative, neoplastic and congenital malformative conditions involving the hand and wrist. Our clinic is known for the professionalism and experience of our surgeons, who focus exclusively on this branch of medicine.
The Importance of Hand Surgery
The hand is a complex anatomical structure composed of bones, joints, ligaments, muscles, and tendons that work synergistically to enable a wide range of daily functions. Hand function depends on sensitivity and pain-free mobilization, all of which can be compromised by various pathologies. The wrist, a joint that connects the radius and carpal bones, also plays a key role in manual movements.
Due to its complexity, the hand and wrist are particularly susceptible to injury. Statistically, 70 percent of occupational injuries involve the hand itself. In addition to trauma, there are many pathologies, both congenital and acquired, that can seriously impair the ability to perform daily activities.

When is a hand surgery consultation recommended?
It is recommended in cases of persistent pain in the hand or wrist, tingling in the fingers, loss of strength, joint stiffness, or after trauma. A specialist evaluation allows the cause to be identified and the most appropriate treatment to be determined.
Is surgery always necessary?
No. Many hand conditions can initially be treated with conservative therapies such as splints, injections, physical therapy, or medication. Surgery is only recommended when non-surgical treatments are ineffective or in more severe cases.
Are the procedures performed under general anesthesia?
In most cases, hand surgery is performed under local or regional anesthesia, often on an outpatient basis, with generally rapid recovery times.
How long does recovery take after hand surgery?
It depends on the condition being treated and the type of surgery. For minimally invasive procedures, you can return to your daily activities within a few weeks. In more complex cases, recovery may require physical therapy and take longer.
How do I book a hand surgery appointment in Bergamo?
Appointments can be booked by contacting the clinic's administrative office directly by phone or email. It is advisable to bring any diagnostic tests that have already been performed (X-rays, ultrasounds, MRIs).
Does the clinic have agreements with health insurance companies?
Yes, the facility has agreements with various health funds and insurance companies. It is advisable to check your coverage when booking.
