Carpal tunnel syndrome is one of the most common nerve conditions, causing numbness, tingling, and weakness in the hand. Early treatment can prevent permanent nerve damage.
Diagnosis includes physical examination, nerve conduction studies, and sometimes ultrasound or MRI. Our specialists can typically diagnose carpal tunnel during your first visit.
Wrist splinting, especially at night, anti-inflammatory medications, corticosteroid injections, and activity modification often provide relief for mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome.
When conservative treatment fails, endoscopic carpal tunnel release is a minimally invasive procedure performed through a small incision. Most patients experience immediate relief and return to normal activities within 2-4 weeks.
