Hand Dominance and Common Hand Conditions

  • February 25, 2016

Upper extremity disorders such as carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), de Quervain’s tenosynovitis (DEQ), lateral epicondylitis (LE), hand osteoarthritis (OA), and trigger finger (TF) are common diagnoses that lead patients to seek a hand surgeon for evaluation and treatment.1,2 Although there is a common perception that these disorders should affect the dominant hand more often, clinical experience suggests that this is not always the case; it is not seen as unusual for these conditions to present in the nondominant hand.
