Chiropractor Mandarin Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a condition where the median nerve becomes irritated and inflammed.  Increased pressure and stress on the nerve can cause the condition to worsen.

Difficulty grasping or picking up things, clumsiness, pain, burning, numbness, tingling in the wrist and hand and fingers may be some of the symptoms.  The stress causes of CTS may be causing other problems as well including neck and back pain, restricted motion in the neck, headaches, and fatigue.  Nerves which come together to form the median nerve originate in the neck.  If the nerves are irritated in the neck and the wrist, this is known as Double Crush Syndrome.  Experts believe that many people with conditions diagnosed as Carpal Tunnel Syndome have, in fact Double Crush Syndrome.  Surgery is many times ineffective.

Rehabilitation that is non-invasive could include techniques such as specific spinal adjustments and adjustments of the wrist to correct misalignments (without surgery) and specific exercise and traction.
