Raise Your Hand

Did you know that Plastic Surgeons are Hand specialists, too?   Hands are incredibly intricate and technical.   Right up a Plastic Surgeon's alley.   Plastic Surgeons  have the same training that an orthopedic Doctor has.  If you have arthritic changes in your hands, pain, loss of motion and strength or accidentally put your hand in the lawn mower you might be really pleased with your care from a boad certified Plastic Surgeon.   Dr. Sellers did an additional year long fellowship in hand surgery when he finished his Plastic surgery training.   So many people go through life in terrible pain and inconvenience because they've been told by someone that "nothing can be done about arthritis.   You just have to live with it."    That is a terrible disservice to people and a totally false statement.  Actually, there are a myriad of things that can be done for pain, numbness, and weakness of the hand.   At least check with a surgeon about your options.  Hands are vital to your quality of life.   Make sure that yours work as well as possible.
