Thumb CMC/Basal Joint Arthritis or Arthritis of the Hand Joints can appear early in life. The constant swiveling and pivoting motions of the basal joint, at the base of the thumb, tends to wear it out easily. While total joint reconstruction surgery may improve the condition for some, new problems in the thumb joint may develop over time, causing such symptoms as numbness, tenderness, or reduced range of motion.
The regenerative treatments for CMC Arthritis and other injuries and conditions in the hand joints and wrist utilizes your own stem cells, blood platelets and/or growth factors to help repair damaged areas that are causing pain.
