How do you know what to evaluate first when a patient comes in with a complex hand therapy case? In this episode, I walk you through my clinical reasoning process using a distal radius fracture case, sharing how I consider the tissues involved, healing timeline, and limitations throughout the upper extremity to guide my evaluation and treatment decisions.
How should your treatment approach change depending on the severity of thumb CMC arthritis? In this episode, I go through how I evaluate mild, moderate, and severe cases, including treatment options, managing patient expectations, and why looking beyond the thumb can help guide clinical decisions.
What do you do when your patient has a painful ganglion cyst but doesn't want surgery? In this episode, let's walk through a real patient case, discussing how to evaluate symptoms, looking beyond the wrist, and determining what hand therapy can realistically do to improve function.
Treating trigger thumb involves more than just choosing a splint or treatment technique. In this episode, let's breaks down how to evaluate trigger thumb, understand the anatomy behind the symptoms, and determine when conservative therapy, injections, or surgery may be appropriate.
Post-fracture thumb stiffness can be challenging, especially when you’re not sure what’s limiting your patient’s motion. In this episode, let's breaks down what therapists should look at, including scarring, joint mobility, thumb and wrist positioning, and how to approach improving motion.
What would you look at if your patient had persistent hand pain, numbness, and weakness after a fall? In this case discussion, I walk through how I would approach the patient using clinical reasoning—not just focusing on where they feel their symptoms.
Want to become a CHT but keep wondering if you’re ready? Don’t rule yourself out before you even start. Start with your qualifications, get clear on WHY you want those letters behind your name, and choose the exam date you’re working toward.
You don’t need to be scared of treating flexor tendons. It’s easy to worry about moving too much, causing a rupture, or doing something wrong—especially when you’ve heard all the horror stories. But that fear can also make you too conservative with your treatment.
