What is carpal tunnel syndrome in Zoeterwoude-Dorp?

The carpal tunnel is located on the inside of the wrist and is a passage for nerves and tendons that run from the forearm to the hand. If there is a swelling in the carpal tunnel, for example by typing too much or working with a jackhammer, your middle hand nerve will soon become pinched. This causes certain complaints, you then speak of carpal tunnel syndrome.

The symptoms are:

• Pain, tingling, numbness in your thumb, fingers and/or palm
• Loss of strength in your hands

You can relieve the complaints by moving your hands at intervals without straining them too much. Nevertheless, it is highly recommended to visit a chiropractor.
