Carpal Tunnel Treatment in Hudson, WI

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which controls sensation and movement in parts of the hand, is compressed within the narrow carpal tunnel. This can happen due to:

• Repetitive Motion: Activities like typing, sewing, or assembly line work.
• Wrist Injuries: Trauma or swelling in the wrist.
• Medical Conditions: Conditions like arthritis, diabetes, or hypothyroidism that increase swelling or nerve sensitivity.
• Poor Posture or Ergonomics: Improper hand positioning during activities.

Symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome include wrist pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness in the hand or fingers, which can worsen over time if left untreated.
