Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve passing through the wrist becomes compressed, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. This condition is known as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and is commonly seen in people who perform repetitive hand movements.
It is caused by compression of the median nerve in the wrist, often due to repetitive hand movements, pregnancy, diabetes, or thyroid conditions.
Mild symptoms may improve with rest and wrist splinting, but persistent or worsening symptoms usually require medical treatment.
It is a procedure that cuts the ligament pressing on the median nerve to relieve pressure, reduce pain, and restore hand function.
Most patients experience relief within a few weeks, with full hand strength typically returning in 2 to 3 months after surgery.
In most cases, numbness and tingling improve significantly after treatment, especially if the condition is treated early before permanent nerve damage occurs.
