Hi,
There are no exercises which cause carpal tunnel syndrome. CTS is caused by an inflammation in the carpal tunnel ( which is made up of the carpal bones in the hand and the flexor retinaculum (a ligament) ). The inflammation can be caused by a number of things, eg. artheritis of the carpal bones, tendonitis or any condition that causes oedema for example, pregnancy. Some of these things will go away on there own, but some may require medical intervention.
There are exercises which will induce the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, which is anything that puts pressure on the carpal tunnel for example when you have your hands bent downwards towards your wrists. But this is not the pathological cause of the syndrome
Hope this helps

If you spend a good portion of your day using your hands in a repetitive motion, you may eventually develop the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). The first sign that you may have developed CTS is experiencing the sensation of numbness, pain or tingling in your hands, fingers or wrists. You are most likely to develop CTS if you are a woman between the age of 30 and 60 whose works consists of using a keyboard, although CTS can affect anyone.
Steps You Can Take to Reduce or Eliminate Carpal Tunnel SyndromeIf you use a computer a lot at home or work, adjust its keyboard so that it is even with your elbows. As you type or read from your computer throughout the day, your feet should be planted firmly on the floor and your wrists and hands should be extended in front of you in a straight line. Also, if you don't already use a wrist rest pad, ask your employer to get one for you to keep your wrists even with the keyboard. Employers are required to design workstations in an ergonomically friendly fashion for their employees, and must make accommodations upon request.
If you are able to, take a few minutes every hour away from your computer to rest your eyes and stretch your muscles. You can strengthen the muscles that are used in keyboarding by facing your palms forward, pressing on the tips of your fingers and holding this position for at least ten seconds. To release the build-up of tension in your muscles, try moving your arms around a bit and then letting them lie loosely at your side for a few moments.
Posture is very important in the prevention of CTS, so be certain to sit up straight and not slouch your shoulders during your work day. This helps to improve the blood flow in your arms, and the improved circulation lessens the effects of CTS.
When to See a DoctorIf you continue to experience symptoms of CTS even after trying these techniques, you may need to see a doctor for further recommendations. He or she may suggest that you wear a wrist brace as support or take medication as needed. In severe cases of CTS, it may be necessary to undergo surgery to correct nerve damage.
