Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition. It can cause pain, numbness, and tingling down the arm into the hand. The cause? One of the hand's major nerves (the median nerve) is squeezed or compressed through the wrist.
If left untreated, carpal tunnel syndrome usually gets worse over time. Early intervention, such as wearing a wrist splint and avoiding triggering activities, can help relieve symptoms.
However, if the pressure on the median nerve continues, it may eventually cause nerve damage, and symptoms worsen. That is when you may require surgery to relieve pressure off the nerve.
