About Hand at Kayakriti
The hand is a marvel of fine engineering, with bones, joints, tendons, vessels and nerves working as a single coordinated unit. Any disturbance in this system can affect the simplest daily tasks. Hand surgery focuses on restoring this delicate balance, whether the underlying problem is congenital, traumatic, degenerative or related to nerve disease such as cerebral palsy.
At Kayakriti in Lucknow, our team manages a wide spectrum of hand conditions. We treat children with congenital deformities such as syndactyly, polydactyly and radial club hand, adults with Dupuytren's contracture or compression neuropathies, and patients of all ages requiring trauma reconstruction. Each plan starts with a detailed examination and clear conversation about realistic outcomes.
Surgical care is matched to the diagnosis. Tendon transfers and joint releases address spasticity in cerebral palsy, fasciectomy and skin grafting tackle Dupuytren's cords, and microsurgical reconstruction handles severe trauma. Where appropriate, splinting, injections and structured therapy are used first to avoid unnecessary surgery. Our team values careful selection over routine operating.
Privacy is treated with the same care as the surgery itself. Personal and medical information is handled with strict confidentiality at every step, from the first phone call to long-term follow-up. Our surgeon is highly qualified and internationally certified, supported by a skilled clinical team that maintains rigorous safety protocols for both patients and staff at our Lucknow centre.

Hand
Hand Birth Defect
Congenital hand deformity treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti supports children born with differences such as syndactyly, polydactyly, radial club hand and constriction band syndrome. Dr. Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh, plans staged surgery alongside hand therapy so children grow up with the best possible function and appearance. Our team provides confidential, family-centred care in a calm and reassuring clinical environment.
Congenital hand deformities are differences present at birth, ranging from minor variations in finger shape to significant absence or fusion of digits. Common conditions include syndactyly, polydactyly, radial and ulnar club hand, brachydactyly, constriction band syndrome and thumb hypoplasia. Early specialist assessment helps families understand the diagnosis and plan timely intervention where it can change long-term function.

Hand
Dupuytren's Contracture
Dupuytren's contracture treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti restores finger extension when fibrous cords pull the digits into the palm. Dr. Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh, performs fasciectomy and, where needed, skin grafting and joint release to free contractures at the MCP and PIP joints. Our team combines careful surgical planning with structured hand therapy so patients regain comfortable, dependable hand function.
Dupuytren's disease is a slowly progressive condition affecting the fascia of the palm and fingers. Thick nodules develop first, followed by fibrous cords that gradually pull the fingers towards the palm. The ring finger is most commonly involved, followed by the small, thumb, middle and index fingers, with deformities centred at the MCP and PIP joints.
Hand
Hand Infections
Hand infection treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti focuses on stopping the spread, protecting tendons, and preserving full hand function. Dr. Amit Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh and microsurgery-trained, leads timely, fellowship-level care for paronychia, deep-space infections, and post-traumatic wound infections that demand precise drainage and structured rehabilitation.
Almost everyone deals with a hand or finger infection at some point, usually after a cut, prick, or workplace injury. The most common patterns we see at Kayakriti include fingertip pulp infections and paronychia around the nail folds, but infection can also track into tendon sheaths, deep palmar spaces, and the dorsum of the hand, where it threatens gliding structures. Early, accurate assessment is what separates a small wound from a long recovery.
Hand
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti targets the painful tendon overload at the outer elbow that makes gripping, lifting, and even pouring tea difficult. Dr. Amit Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh and microsurgery-trained, sequences proven nonsurgical care first and reserves precise tendon surgery for the small group who genuinely need it.
Lateral epicondylitis treatment is needed when the tendons attaching to the outer elbow become inflamed and partially torn from repetitive forearm loading. Despite the name, most patients are not athletes; we see mechanics, chefs, carpenters, dentists, plumbers, cleaners, and musicians, typically aged 30 to 50, with the dominant arm affected. The hallmark is a sharp, focal point of pain that flares with twisting and gripping.
Hand
Trigger Finger
Trigger finger treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti addresses the painful catching, clicking, or locked finger that makes simple grips frustrating. Dr. Amit Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh and microsurgery-trained, offers a clear ladder from splinting and injections to a small, precise A1 pulley release when finger locking treatment needs to be definitive.
Trigger finger develops when the flexor tendon and its surrounding sheath no longer glide smoothly. Inflammation and thickening of the tendon sheath, tenosynovitis, or arthritic change create a mismatch that catches at the A1 pulley as the finger flexes. Patients describe a snap, a lock, or a painful click, and sometimes have to use the other hand to straighten the finger, which is classic finger stiffness treatment territory.
Hand
Stiff Hand
Stiff hand treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti is built around restoring real-world finger movement, not just measuring degrees on a goniometer. Dr. Amit Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh and microsurgery-trained, leads a structured pathway combining hand physiotherapy, splinting, and selective surgery for patients whose fingers will not fully bend or straighten.
A stiff hand is defined by reduced finger motion that interferes with grip and pinch. The cause is usually layered: scarred skin, tight palmar fascia (as in Dupuytren's), shortened tendon sheaths, capsular contracture, or tendon adhesions after injury, infection, or earlier surgery. At Kayakriti we examine each tissue plane separately so the joint stiffness treatment hand plan addresses the actual block, not just the symptom.
Hand
Cerebral Palsy Hand Deformity
Cerebral palsy hand deformity treatment in Lucknow at Kayakriti combines therapy, splinting, Botox and selective surgery to improve hand use in children and adults. Dr. Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh, works alongside paediatricians and therapists to plan tendon transfers, joint releases and contracture corrections at the right age, helping patients gain better grasp, hygiene and independence in daily life.
Cerebral palsy is a developmental disorder caused by injury to the developing brain, occurring before, during or shortly after birth. Risk factors include prematurity, low birth weight, neonatal jaundice, intracranial bleeding, maternal infections and certain genetic conditions. The resulting motor problems can affect one or both upper limbs and lower limbs, often leading to spasticity, contractures and an abnormal gait.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Is hand surgery safe?
Yes, hand surgery is performed routinely with a strong safety record at specialist centres. At Kayakriti, our team uses careful planning, magnification and structured anaesthetic protocols to manage risks. Specific concerns such as infection, stiffness or nerve issues are discussed openly during your Lucknow consultation so each patient feels informed.
How long is recovery after hand surgery?
Recovery depends on the procedure. Minor operations may need only two to three weeks, while complex tendon, nerve or congenital reconstructions take several months of structured hand therapy. Dr. Agarwal, FRCS Edinburgh, designs a personalised rehabilitation plan so each patient regains grip, pinch and dexterity step by step.
What does hand surgery cost in Lucknow?
Cost depends on the diagnosis, technique, hospital stay, anaesthesia and length of hand therapy. Smaller procedures are far less expensive than microsurgical reconstruction. After your consultation, our team provides a clear, itemised estimate so you can plan finances and any travel from outside Lucknow comfortably.
Can children have hand surgery safely?
Yes, paediatric hand surgery is routine at experienced centres. Operating on growing tissues requires special expertise, and our team uses paediatric anaesthesia protocols and gentle techniques. Many congenital differences are best corrected in early childhood, with detailed planning and family support throughout the journey at Kayakriti.
Who is a candidate for hand surgery?
Anyone with persistent pain, deformity, weakness or loss of function in the hand benefits from specialist assessment. Conditions such as Dupuytren's, cerebral palsy hand deformity, trauma sequelae and congenital differences are common indications. Our team takes time to explain non-surgical alternatives wherever appropriate before recommending surgery.
