Does Carpal Tunnel include hands falling asleep at night?
If your hands are falling asleep at night, that suggests inadequate blood circulation rather than carpal tunnel syndrome. Quite possibly you are not holding your arms in a good position to promote blood circulation. Do not bend the elbows; straight arms are less constricting to blood vessels. On the other hand, some early symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome can be mistaken for things like poor circulation in the hands ( and hands falling asleep).

What cause carpal tunnel?
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 Hi, There are no exercises which cause carpal tunnel syndrome.
