Carpal Tunnel Treatment St. Louis
Carpal Tunnel is a condition caused mostly by repetitive movements and it occurs when there is constant pressure on the median nerve from swelling in the nerve or tendons. Common symptoms include pain, tingling or loss of feeling, control and strength in the hands and wrists. Often people with Carpal Tunnel can find relief by abstaining from the movement causing it or by wearing stabilizing braces to keep the pressure off the nerve. Sometimes, however, particularly if the damage is already more severe or there is nerve damage, a more aggressive treatment may be needed.
