Carpal tunnel syndrome is a medical condition due to compression of the median nerve as it travels through the wrist at the carpal tunnel. Symptoms are pain, numbness and tingling in the thumb, index finger, and middle finger. Pain may even extend up the arm. There are a variety of treatment options for carpal tunnel syndrome which includes medications, use of a wrist brace, steroid injections and even surgery.

Carpal tunnel syndrome develops when swelling or anatomical narrowing within the rigid wrist compartment places persistent mechanical pressure on the central median nerve pathway.
Chronic inflammation from repetitive hand movements, localized fluid retention, or structural wrist joint changes.
