The carpal tunnel rests within the underside of the wrist. It is a tunnel, or passage, through which the Median nerve travels on its way to stimulate and enliven the hand and fingers. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the most common nerve entrapment disorder. As the name indicates, the condition comes about when a nerve is impinged or restricted between other tissues of the body producing inflammation of the nerve. This can take place if the size of the tendon enlarges due to irritation or overuse, or if the tunnel, itself, shrinks due to the misalignment of the carpal bones.
Pain, numbness, pins and needles, and tingling in the fingers are the first symptoms of CTS. People with CTS often awaken from sleep with these symptoms and shakeout and/or rub their hands to try to ease the unpleasant feeling. Furthermore, the hands can feel clumsy or weak, and fatigue easily with activity. Over time, grasping small objects with the thumb and fingers can be extremely affected and, without treatment, can result in an entire disability of the hand.
Obviously, correct diagnosis and suitable treatment are crucial to confining the disabling symptoms associated with the advancement of CTS.
