What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a kind of work-related injury that’s caused by compression over a nerve because of fluid retention or by continual repetitive movements, such as typing or data entry. The condition results in the following signs and symptoms:
– Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, and middle fingers, and sometimes in the palm
– Muscle weakness, which may result in difficulty grabbing objects
– Dull ache in the upper arm
Chiropractic Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Currently, the only viable medical treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is steroid injections, which may produce several side effects. Apart from steroids, doctors may use carpal tunnel surgery for patients with severe symptoms.
At HealthFirst Spine & Wellness, we use an all-natural approach to help you avoid the invasive treatment and pain associated with medicines and surgery and provide you with carpal tunnel management in Austin. Our expert chiropractors not only promote wrist mobilization with chiropractic manipulation but also suggest different exercises to relieve excess pressure on the median nerve and prevent possible nerve damage.
