CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME
GET RELIEF FROM PAIN AND DISCOMFORT
TREATING CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME AT LA BELLE FORME
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition caused by pressure on the median nerve in your wrist. This can result in pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand. At La Belle Forme, we offer effective treatments to help relieve these symptoms and improve your quality of life.
TREATMENT OPTIONS
- Splinting: Wearing a splint or brace at night can help keep your wrist in a neutral position and reduce pressure on the median nerve, providing relief from symptoms.
- Medication: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or corticosteroid injections may be recommended to reduce inflammation and alleviate pain.
- Physical Therapy: Targeted exercises and stretching techniques can help improve strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the affected wrist and hand.
- Minimally Invasive Surgery: If conservative measures are ineffective or if your symptoms are severe, surgical intervention may be recommended. Our skilled orthopaedic surgeons perform minimally invasive procedures to release the pressure on the median nerve and restore function to the affected hand and fingers.
CARPAL TUNNEL FAQ
WHAT IS CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a condition that occurs when the median nerve, which runs from the forearm into the palm of the hand, becomes compressed or squeezed at the wrist. This compression can cause numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain in the hand and fingers.
