Carpal tunnel syndrome, also known as median nerve compression, is a condition which affects the hand. The median nerve is located on the palm side of your hand which is also known as the carpal tunnel. The median nerve is responsible for providing sensation to the thumb, the index finger, and parts of the ring finger. The nerve is responsible for the muscle going to the thumb. Carpal tunnel Syndrome is usually accompanied by sensations of pain, tingling, burning or swelling in the palm of the hands and may extend to the first three fingers of the hand and the thumb.
Occasionally, individuals also report a feeling like there is a swelling in the hand even when no swelling is present. People with carpal tunnel syndrome commonly experience weakness in the affected hand and face difficulty with regular tasks like picking up small objects. This condition can have a huge impact on a person's lifestyle and in severe cases, if left untreated, damage to the median nerve can lead to permanent loss of movement in the hand.
If you have signs of carpal tunnel syndrome, better not avoid the condition and visit an expert orthopedic doctor for carpal tunnel treatment in India.

A doctor can diagnose a carpal tunnel syndrome by doing a physical examination and tests called nerve conduction studies. The physical examination may include a thorough evaluation of your hand, shoulder, wrist, neck or any other parts that can cause pressure in the nerve. The doctor may also check if there are any tenderness or swelling in the wrist. The doctor may further check the sensation of the fingers and the strength of the muscles in your hand.
To relieve the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, an orthopedic doctor performs a surgery called Carpal Tunnel Release surgery. The goal of carpal tunnel surgery is to reduce pain, swelling and pressure on the median nerve. This surgery is performed in a hospital operating room under the influence of general or local anaesthesia on an outpatient basis. During the surgery, the orthopedic surgeon makes 1 or 2 small incisions, about ½ inch each, in the palm or wrist area. These small incisions will result in very small scars, which in most cases are unnoticeable.
An endoscope is inserted through one incision. The endoscope has a camera on its end, which allows the doctor to look for any pathology or anomaly. The endoscope presents an image on the television screen that allows the surgeon to see the inside of the hand or wrist directly. The doctor may insert surgical instruments through the second incision to cut the transverse carpal ligament and thus releasing the pressure on the median nerve by expanding the carpal tunnel. After the ligament is cut, the incisions are closed by dissolvable sutures. Carpal tunnel release surgery is much less traumatic to the joint, muscles ligaments, and tissues than the conventional carpal tunnel surgery that is performed with long incisions.

An orthopedic specialist will suggest a carpal tunnel release only when-
After carpal tunnel release surgery, the orthopedic surgeon will tell you what to expect and what all you can do and cannot do. Common post-operative guidelines after carpal tunnel release include:
Most people take about a week but the time you should take off work after surgery mainly depends on the type of your job. If your job involves manual or high repetitive activities or work for a longer period of time, consider taking a few weeks of break after your surgery.
All humans deserve equal treatment but everyone cannot afford costly treatments at multispeciality or super-specialty hospitals.
