Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Surgery

If you have carpal tunnel syndrome, you may experience numbness, tingling and burning in your hand and fingers. You may have pain in your forearm which can extend as far as your shoulder and neck. Typically, however, only your thumb, index and middle fingers, and the side of your ring finger nearest your thumb are affected.

Carpal tunnel syndrome tends to be worse at night or first thing in the morning. Carpal tunnel syndrome treatment aims to relieve your symptoms by reducing the pressure on the median nerve. If you are suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome, you should commence treatment as early as possible, under the guidance of your GP. Sometimes, carpal tunnel syndrome improves without any treatment.
