Denver Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Health Center

Patients often wonder, “Why do I have carpal tunnel syndrome? What can cause this condition, and what can make me particularly prone to it?”

What Actions Provoke Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Grabbing objects while the wrist is flexed is a movement that can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome. Movements like using the mouse of a computer terminal incorrectly causes pinching of the nerve that causes this painful disorder.

What Conditions Aggravate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
The tunnel that runs through the wrist to carry the nerve associated with carpal tunnel syndrome can be narrowed by the following; arthritis, swelling, fractures or broken bones. This interferes with the nerve that leads to carpal tunnel syndrome.

Who Does Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Effect?
Women are particularly prone to carpal tunnel syndrome, although men can be affected as well. The most common onset is age 40-50, although a person of any age can have it. The symptoms can be present in one wrist or both. Usually the dominant hand is the one involved.

Research shows that carpal tunnel surgery is ineffective in many instances. Patients continue to have the same pain or worse. The best surgeons recommend:

- The most conservative measures first.
- Medications second, (all drugs have side effects).
- Surgery should be the last resort, surgery is dangerous.

Before you even think about surgery, read this clinical case history.

“I had numbness in my right hand and was referred to a hand specialist but felt he would probably recommend surgery. As I have already had a few surgeries, I felt I would really like to avoid anymore, at least for a while. I began receiving chiropractic adjustments about six weeks ago. I can tell that the numbness is gradually going away-for longer periods of time, as care goes on.” -P. Gabriels
Chiropractic is conservative. Doctors of chiropractic gently realign the bones of the wrist taking pressure off the nerve involved with carpal tunnel syndrome, the median nerve.

Why are carpal tunnel syndrome patients visiting our clinic? Isn’t Dr. Visentin, D.C. a spine doctor? What does the spine have to do with tingly hands?

The article sited below is more scientific proof that shows how carpal tunnel syndrome sufferers may benefit from our care. We remove pressure from the nerves that go to the wrists, from the neck.

People with healthy spines have fewer health problems and much less chance of suffering carpal tunnel syndrome.

Spinal Manipulation, 5th edition by Bourdillon JE, Day EA, Bookhout MR: Oxford, England, Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd, 1992:
“Faulty innervation caused by spinal joint lesions is one of the main factors in the production of carpal tunnel syndrome.” P. 207.
If you suspect you may have carpal tunnel syndrome, call (303) 394-CARE (2273) now. We’ll examine your wrists and your spine, to see if it’s contributing to your pain. This special carpal tunnel exam is FREE when you mention this article on your first visit.

In our Denver Carpal Tunnel Health Center we see patients with carpal tunnel symptoms which affect their daily activities at work, recreation, and even sleeping. Usually carpal tunnel syndrome produces pain, numbness, and tingling into the first three fingers on the palmer surface of your hand. The cause is irritation or entrapment of your median nerve at the carpal tunnel of your wrist.

Carpal tunnel diagnosis

To diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome, your doctor will take you through a series of sensory, motor, reflex, and orthopedic tests to determine exactly where the median nerve irritation is happening. Carpal tunnel-like symptoms can also come from entrapment of the median nerve somewhere other than the carpal tunnel. Other places that it can be trapped are closer to the elbow and the shoulder. Other causes may be irritation of a spinal nerve originating from your neck and ending in the same fingers innervated by (more…)
