The hand is one of the most complex and vital parts of the body — essential for work, personal care, communication, and expression. When injured or infected, it requires prompt and expert management to preserve its intricate structure and restore full function.

At Grandville Medical & Laser, our plastic and reconstructive surgeons specialize in the diagnosis, surgical repair, and rehabilitation of all types of hand injuries and infections. We combine precision surgery with compassionate care to get your hands working — and looking — like they should.

Hand Infections We Manage

Prompt treatment is crucial for infections in the hand due to the risk of rapid spread and loss of function.

Common infections include:

•Felon – abscess in the fingertip pulp

•Paronychia – infection around the nail fold

•Flexor Tenosynovitis – dangerous deep infection of the tendon sheath

•Septic arthritis – infection inside hand joints

•Human or animal bite wounds

•Post-traumatic or post-surgical infections

We perform surgical drainage, debridement, and provide targeted antibiotics, while preserving tissue and hand mechanics.
