Doctors for Basal Thumb Arthritis Treatment in Kakinada

Basal thumb arthritis is wear-and-tear of the joint at the base of the thumb, where the thumb meets the wrist. It can make gripping, pinching, opening jars, or turning keys painful and stiff. Over time, the thumb may feel weak, sore, or look a bit swollen, especially after repeated use.

Basal Thumb Arthritis may cause symptoms such as decreased grip strength, thumb deformity and activity-related pain. Depending on the condition and its severity, delayed medical care may result in persistent symptoms, progression of the disease, or related complications.
