CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome - You might first notice that your fingers "fall asleep" and become numb a night. 
You may feel a burning, tingling, or itching numbness in the palm of your hand and thumb, or index and middle fingers.  

​Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is caused by pressure on your median nerve, which runs the length of the arm, goes through a passage in the wrist called the carpal tunnel, and ends in the hand.  The median nerve controls the movement and feeling of your thumb, and also the movement of all your fingers except your pinky.
carpal tunnel syndrome is often caused by repetitive motions, like typing or any motions of the wrist that you do over and over. 
​
If you have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and don't get it treated, its symptoms can last a long time, get worse, and can even go away and return.
