I think it would be possible, but there are many other risk factors that can contribute to CTS; such as Diabetes, Arthritis, prior wrist injury, obesity and hypothyroidism to name a few. Playing the piano s more likely to strain the extensor tendons (the tendons on top of your hand) since the bottom of your wrist (where the actual carpal tunnel area is) is not resting or pressing on something. The treatment should be aimed at reducing the offending activity, ice to the area of pain or soreness, biofreeze pain relieving gel and night splints to sleep in (to keep the tendons and nerves in a neutral posture)

How long do you have to wait after carpal tunnel surgery to play piano?

After carpal tunnel surgery, the typical recovery time before resuming piano playing can vary, but most people can expect to wait about 4 to 6 weeks.
