Carpal tunnel syndrome visualizes several symptoms, which remain unidentified. Subtle symptoms result in its non-recognition.
Numbness in the hands and fingers, accompanied by a tingling sensation are typical symptoms. Numbness of hands and fingers are generally mistaken to be a result of improper sleep position, thereby causing a blockage in circulation. Frequent interruption in sleep is associated with carpal tunnel. Other symptoms include weakness of the hands, improper motor skills, shoulder and neck pain, inability to have a grip on things, dropping objects, numbness of hands on waking up, cold arms and radiation of pain to the upper arms. Combination of any of these symptoms calls for an immediate visit to the physician. Recovery is faster, based on the time of identification or diagnosis and treatment undergone. Avoid foods, such as citrus fruits, tomatoes, cow's milk and so on. Carpal tunnel syndrome is common in pregnancy, due to the compression of the nerves. It is generally seen in the middle finger, thumb and index finger. Keep shifting your sleeping position. Avoid jobs that involve regular working with your hands. Keep your hands in an elevated position and try shaking them frequently, to reduce numbness. Operation involves a simple procedure of adjusting the carpal ligament. A wrist splint also proves beneficial. Supplementation of pyridoxine seems to help. A healthy and balanced meal is an effective remedy.
