How Can Painful Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Be Treated?
Hello, I was diagnosed with Carpel Tunnel Syndrome many years ago but apparently it was a very mild case because I didn t have pain and I would only wear the braces every so often. I am now 51 and it is getting much worse, a lot of pain at night and tingling and loss of feeling. I am planning to have the procedure done soon but is there anything I can do to control the pain and loss of feeling in the meantime?

hello patient,
carpal tunnnel syndrome means ,
normally at wrist there is band covering all strusture in ur hand.
in you this band is so thight it compressin your nerve at wrist.
which result u in pain ,loss of sensation weakness of finger.
so better take ur surgery as soon as possible.
surgery includes they just incise that band make space for that compressed nerve,
if u delay it make condition worst.
as u asked any alternative medications only reduce pain cannnot stop progression of disease.
so better go for surgery
thanku
