Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment
2008-02-13 06:09:00 Experts call carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) the leading occupational hazard of the computer age. But you don't have to spend your days pounding on a keyboard to develop this condition.When you repeatedly move your fingers in the same pattern for hours on end, the tendons that connect your finger muscles to your wrist bones get irritated and inflamed.

The swollen tissues make for very tight accommodations inside the carpal tunnel, the channel deep inside your wrist where your finger tendons and wrist ligaments come together.Within the narrow confines of that channel, the tissues press on an important and highly sensitive set of nerve fib ers called the median nerve. The median nerve controls sensation and movement in your hand. When the nerve is under pressure, you experience tingling, burning, or numbness in your hand-the classic symptoms of CTS.Though computers are rightly blamed for the majority of CTS cases, the condition...
