Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Explained

What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition that affects the median nerve, which runs from the upper arm, near the shoulder, down into the hand, controlling movement and sensation in the thumb and all of the fingers except the pinkie. This nerve passes through the carpal tunnel, a passage in the wrist consisting of bones and ligaments. When the carpal tunnel becomes swollen and inflamed, it can put pressure on the median nerve.

DEFFINITION

What are the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

This can cause a variety of symptoms such as numbness and tingling, like your fingers have “fallen asleep”. Pain, itching, and burning sensations are also common, and may extend up the arm. This can be brought on by trauma or injury, or even from disorders like diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, an overactive pituitary gland, or hypothyroidism. Many people also develop carpal tunnel syndrome from repetitive motion injuries relating to their occupation.

OUR APPROACH

How can Veeva Chiropractic help?

This could include not only chiropractic adjustments, but also soft tissue treatments like massage, corrective exercises to improve strength, and lifestyle advice related to ergonomic solutions that could help to prevent further irritation and harm.
Best of all, these treatments can be used in conjunction with other therapies (such as anti-inflammatory drugs or surgery), or possibly as an alternative to pharmaceutical and invasive surgical interventions.
