Hello Barbell Medicine team! I have been diagnosed with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Thankfully it is not severe, I still have full use of my hand and I still have a strong grip however, the pain is constant and it tends to bother me throughout the day. The pain is about a 2 or 3 out of 10. Is there any way to heal this issue?
Thanks!
Have you used any sort of wrist splinting, particularly at night?
I am guessing you had electrodiagnostics done to diagnose it? Or just from clinical exam?
As Austin said night splinting is usually the first step, and with some activity modification especially if you have a job where you type alot. Where is the distribution of pain in your hand exactly?
