| Some of the most common injuries of the hand and upper extremity result from trauma, like falls, collisions and sports injuries. Fortunately, most of these injuries are minor, but the discomfort and affect they have on hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder function can be significant. If you have sustained an injury that you or another doctor believes to be a fracture or dislocation, we encourage you to contact National Hand Specialists at Union Memorial Hospital and make an appointment to see one of our skilled and experienced surgeons (see CONTACT) In order for our patients to learn more about specific fractures and dislocations, we have collaborated with DynoMed.com, the leader in patient education. Please consult our extensive library of INJURIES & CONDITIONS to find more information on your problem. General Fractures & Dislocation Information > What are Fractures?
