Frequently asked questions from Mexican patients
For any hand or wrist injury, it is crucial to see a dedicated “hand expert” for an accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Dr. Badia, in alignment with the American Society for Surgery of the Hand (ASSH), emphasizes that many patients do not see the appropriate specialist, which can affect their outcome. A specialized hand surgeon has the focused training to address the complex issues of the hand and upper extremities.
Dr. Badia is a specialist in the hand and upper extremities, treating a wide range of conditions. This includes common issues like Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and arthritis, as well as complex sports-related injuries. He focuses on using advanced, minimally invasive techniques for joint replacement, arthroscopy, and other procedures to ensure a faster and less traumatic recovery for the patient.
While many people believe computer and mouse use causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS), this is a common myth that is not supported by scientific evidence. The actual causes are typically related to physiological factors. CTS is most often seen in middle-aged women and is linked to hormonal changes (like menopause or pregnancy), chronic metabolic conditions such as diabetes or thyroid disease, and rapid weight gain.
Treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome usually begins with conservative methods aimed at reducing inflammation. This often includes wearing a splint at night and may involve steroid injections to relieve pressure on the nerve. If symptoms are severe or do not improve, surgery is a highly successful option. Dr. Badia specializes in minimally invasive surgical techniques that lead to better results and a quicker recovery.
Yes, Dr. Badia has a special focus on treating athletes with hand and upper extremity injuries. His expertise is recognized internationally, as he serves as the President of the International Society of Sport Traumatology of the Hand (ISSPORTH) and is an invited expert speaker at global events like the Pan-American Congress of Sports Medicine.
