Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatments

Nonsurgical Treatments for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

There are a few things you can do to relieve your Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. For instance, take frequent rest breaks to do something different with your hands during exhaustive activity. After assessing your activity, try modifying it or abstaining to relieve the awkward positioning that might be putting you in pain.

For those Carpal Tunnel Syndrome sufferers who wake up at night, wearing a wrist splint at night can help relieve the numb, tingling feeling that wakes you up. Wearing it during the day can get in the way of your everyday activities, and might even exacerbate the problem further.

Cortisone injections have been proven to help the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, as well.
