Denver Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Tuesday, December 14th, 2010

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.

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

“Faulty innervation caused by spinal joint lesions is one of the main factors in the production of carpal tunnel syndrome.” P. 207.
