Hand pain, distinct from radiculopathy, involves discomfort or pain in the hand, which can result from various conditions affecting the hand's bones, joints, tendons, or muscles. Unlike radiculopathy, which is related to nerve root compression in the spine, hand pain often stems from localized issues in the hand itself.
Hand pain can arise from numerous causes, ranging from acute injuries to chronic conditions. It's crucial to understand its source for effective treatment.
