How much do you know about carpal tunnel syndrome?

Symptoms of carpal tunnel

It's a condition you hear a lot about, but do you understand carpal tunnel syndrome? More importantly, do you have any of the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome?

The wrist is surrounded by a band of tissue. Between the band of tissue and the wrist bone is the carpal tunnel.

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve becomes pressed or squeezed at the wrist. As a result, the hand and wrist may experience:

pain
weakness
numbness (may radiate up the arm).

What causes carpal tunnel?

Anything that causes swelling or irritation of the synovial membranes around the tendons in the carpal tunnel can result in pressure on the median nerve.
Some common causes are repetitive and forceful grasping with the hands, repetitive bending of the wrist, broken or dislocated bones in the wrist, obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, thyroid problems, diabetes, hormonal changes of pregnancy and menopause.
