What does carpal tunnel affect?
Carpal tunnel is actually the name of the area in your wrist where nerves and tendons pass through. If the median nerve gets compressed or pinched in some way, this can lead to carpal tunnel syndrome.

If it goes on long enough w/o treatment, you can lose muscle tone and grip strength in your hands.
