What are the symptoms of carpal tunnel?
Carpal tunnel is the name of the area in your wrist where the median nerve can get compressed causing the actual carpal tunnel syndrome. Typically it effects women more than men 2 to 1. You will have numbness and tingling type symptoms in the first two or three fingers and have symptoms at night and or in the morning. Some people complain of hand weakness, or ache/ pain in the hands. You may have a history of repetitive hand use at work or as a hobby but not always. If you have diabetes, hypothyroidism, old wrist fracture, arthritis etc..these things put you at risk for getting CTS.

One incision will typically be at the wrist for the carpal tunnel release, while the second may be located at the elbow or in the forearm to address the ulnar nerve issue. Your specific surgical approach will depend on the severity of your condition and the surgeon's technique. It's best to discuss the details with your surgeon for clarity on your procedure.

The first two things you have to look at are diabetic neuropathy and carpal tunnel syndrome. Diabetic neuropathy is more of a burning pins and needle feeling and can effect the feet as well and of course you would have to have diabetes. Carpal tunnel syndrome classically will give you numbness and tingling of the first 2 or 3 fingers at night and upon waking. You may have a history of diabetes, hypothyroidism or repetitive use of hands. It effects women 2:1 usually in the 35-55 year old range and unlike diabetic neuropathy it won't effect your feet and it may be in one hand.
