I am a 58 year old male. I want to know what is the best surgery for hand spasms?
Depending on the cause of the spasms there are several options, some do not require surgery.
Best to discuss with a neurologist and determine if surgery is necessary
Possible carpal tunnel surgery. You need to consult Neurology and a Hand surgeon.
Hello,
There are many different causes of hand spasms. An internal medicine specialist can evaluate for medical conditions that may be treatable with medications or Botox. From a hand surgery perspective, compressed nerves, either due to carpal tunnel syndrome, cubital tunnel syndrome, or a pinched nerve in the neck can also cause occasional hand spasms. In these cases, nerve decompression surgery in the appropriate location ( wrist, elbow, neck) can be helpful. The first step is establishing a diagnosis and understanding why the spasms are occurring.

There is no surgery out there for hand spasms that I know of.

Hand spasms are not treated with surgery. I would suggest you see a neurologist to determine why you are suffering from hand spasms. Depending upon the reason, there maybe medications that can treat your condition.
