    Carpal Tunnel – Condition

    The median nerve is compressed as it passes through the hand, causing carpal tunnel syndrome. On the palm side of your hand, the median nerve is found (also called the carpal tunnel). The median nerve provides sensation to your thumb, index finger, long finger, and a portion of your ring finger. It sends an impulse to the muscle that moves the thumb. On the side of your hand near the thumb, it might cause numbness, weakness, and tingling.

    Carpal Tunnel – Symptoms

    Here are some of the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel:

    • The most typical symptoms are numbness, tingling, burning, and pain in the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers. This frequently awakens individuals up in the middle of the night.
    • Thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers have a shock-like sensation.
    • Tingling or soreness in the forearm that extends to the shoulder
    • Hand clumsiness and weakness can make precise actions such as buttoning your clothes difficult.
    • Dropping objects owing to numbness, weakness, or a loss of body awareness.

    Carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms usually appear gradually and without a specific injury. Many individuals experience symptoms that come and go at initially. As the illness progresses, symptoms may appear more frequently or for longer periods of time. Symptoms may wake you up since many people sleep with their wrists bent. Symptoms commonly occur during the day when holding something for a long time with the wrist bent forward or backward, such as when talking on the phone, driving, or reading a book. Many patients report that shaking or moving their hands makes them feel better.

      Carpal Tunnel - Treatments

      Carpal tunnel syndrome will worsen over time for most people without treatment, despite the fact that it is a progressive process. As a result, it’s important to have your doctor evaluate and diagnose you as soon as possible. It may be possible to delay or stop the progression of the disease in its early stages.

      • In females, because of differences in anatomy, muscle strength, and hormonal impacts.
      • Soccer, football, basketball, gymnastics, and downhill skiing participants can get this injury.
      • Inadequate air conditioning
      • Using incorrect movement patterns, such as squatting with the knees inward.
      • Putting on shoes that don’t fit properly
      • Using sporting equipment that isn’t well-maintained, such as ski bindings that aren’t correctly adjusted
      • Playing on a synthetic surface

      Nonsurgical Treatment

      Carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms can typically be cured without surgery if recognised and treated early. If your doctor is unsure about your diagnosis or your symptoms are minor, nonsurgical treatment will be recommended initially.

      Treatments that aren’t surgical include:

      • Splinting or Bracing – Wearing a night brace or splint will prevent you from bending your wrist while sleeping. Keeping your wrist in a straight or neutral position relieves the carpal tunnel nerve. Wearing a splint during the day when doing activities that aggravate your symptoms may also assist.
      • Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicines (NSAIDs) – These are medications that are used to treat inflammation. Ibuprofen and naproxen are anti-inflammatory drugs that canaid with pain and inflammation.
      • Change in activities – When your hand and wrist are in the same posture for too long especially when your wrist is flexed or stretched, symptoms can develop. Changing or adjusting your career or recreational activities if they worsen your symptoms can help reduce or stop disease progression. Changes to your work site or workstation may be required in some situations.
      • Gliding workouts for the nerves – Exercises that let the median nerve move more freely inside the limitations of the carpal tunnel may benefit some people. Your doctor or therapist may recommend specific workouts.
      • Injections of steroids – Corticosteroid, sometimes known as cortisone, is a potent anti-inflammatory that can be injected directly into the carpal tunnel. These injections are frequently used to ease unpleasant symptoms or to assist calm a flare-up.

      Carpal Tunnel – Surgery

      Your doctor may offer surgery if nonsurgical treatment fails to relieve your symptoms or only gives temporary relief. The following factors are considered while deciding whether or not to recommend surgery:

      • Your symptoms’ seriousness
      • The results of the physical examination
      • The patient’s reaction to non-operative treatment
      • The results of the tests

      Surgery may be needed to prevent permanent damage in long-term situations of continuous numbness and atrophy of the thumb muscles. If non-operative treatments fail to provide relief and/or testing reveals severe nerve alterations, surgery may be suggested.

      Release the carpal tunnel – Your doctor makes a small incision in the palm of your hand and looks into your hand and wrist through it during open carpal tunnel release surgery. Your doctor will divide the transverse carpal ligament during the treatment (the roof of the carpal tunnel).

      This opens up the tube, allowing the median nerve to be relieved of pressure. The ligament may gradually extend as a result of surgery, but there will be greater space in the carpal tunnel and pressure on the median nerve will be eased.

      Carpal tunnel syndrome is treated with an endoscopic procedure – Your doctor will create one or two small skin incisions (called portals) and use a little camera, or endoscope, to look inside your hand and wrist during endoscopic surgery. Similar to the open carpal tunnel release operation, a specific knife is used to separate the transverse carpal ligament. Open surgery and endoscopic surgery produce similar results. Both the procedures have their own set of advantages and drawbacks. Your doctor will discuss the best surgical procedure for you with you.

      Recovery & Post Operation Take Care

      To minimize swelling and prevent stiffness, raise your hand above your heart and move your fingers as soon as possible following surgery. After your procedure, you should expect some pain, oedema, and stiffness. Minor pain in the palm of your hand might linger anywhere from a few weeks to several months. In the first week or so after surgery, most patients’ night-time problems improve considerably.
