What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common condition caused by the compression of the median nerve at the wrist, leading to pain, tingling, and weakness in the hand. The median nerve travels through a narrow passageway in the wrist called the carpal tunnel. When this space becomes compressed due to inflammation, repetitive movements, or other contributing factors, it can affect both sensation and strength throughout the hand. If left untreated, CTS can result in permanent nerve damage and loss of grip strength, making daily tasks difficult.
Early diagnosis and treatment are vital to prevent these long-term effects. One such treatment is physiotherapy, which alleviates symptoms and addresses the root causes of nerve compression. Connect with us now for dependable carpal tunnel syndrome treatment in Surrey.
