Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition that affects the nerves and tendons in the wrist. It occurs when swollen or inflamed tendons put pressure on the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, causing pain, weakness, and numbness in the hand, fingers, and arm.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is more common in women and people over the age of 50. It can be caused by a variety of factors including arthritis, heredity, repetitive stress injuries, and excessive, prolonged use of computers, as well as other medical conditions like diabetes.
Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome include pain, numbness, weakness, and tingling in the hand and fingers, especially the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers. These symptoms can worsen over time and may interfere with the ability to perform everyday activities.
