Specialist Orthopedic Hand Surgery Care in Bahrain
Your hands are essential for daily life. If you experience pain, numbness, stiffness, weakness, or trouble moving your hand, it can make work, sports, and simple tasks harder.

At King’s Bahrain Clinic, patients receive specialist assessment and treatment for a wide range of hand and wrist conditions. When advanced surgery is required, referrals can be coordinated with the hand surgery team at King’s College Hospital London in Dubai. Follow-up care can then continue at King’s Bahrain Clinic whenever appropriate.
What is hand surgery?
Hand surgery is a branch of orthopedics that treats problems with the fingers, thumb, hand, wrist, and related tissues like tendons, ligaments, joints, muscles, and nerves.
Although many hand and wrist conditions can be managed without surgery, some patients benefit from an operation to relieve pain, restore movement, improve strength, or repair injuries.
What does hand surgery do?
The aim of hand surgery is to restore hand function, reduce pain, and improve everyday activities. Following a detailed assessment, treatment is tailored to your condition and may include:
- A comprehensive orthopedic assessment.
- Examination of hand, finger, thumb, and wrist function.
- Imaging referrals where appropriate.
- Personalised non-surgical treatment when suitable.
- Referral to King’s College Hospital London in Dubai if surgery is required.
