Emergency treatment includes a wide range of modern surgical procedures that can be used to treat broken fingers, middle hands, wrists and forearms. Even complicated breaks can be repaired and stabilised with minimum pain and inconvenience so that all the functions are more or less fully restored.

Broken scaphoid bones on the wrist used to be immobilised in a plaster cast, sometimes for several months. Nowadays the scaphoid bone can be fixed with a screw so that the wrist soon regains its mobility.
