Walt's Carpal Tunnel Summary & Q/A Archive A wrist syndrome closely related to Fibromyositis and Arthritis Cataracts, reversing Walt's response to a recent question about reversing cataracts: Contact The Rockland Corporation, 12215 East Skelly Drive, Tulsa, OK 74128 (800) 331-3654 and ask them about how you can find out about "Body Toddy", which reverses AND prevents cataracts However, if this were me, I would also be taking at least 2 grams of Ester-C twice a day; at least 100 milligrams of coenzyme Q10 twice a day, 50 milligrams of zinc and 1000 units of vitamin E once a day Catharsis The release or active expression of emotions, sometimes in negative ways (breaking things in anger), but more appropriately in positive ways (verbalize it, act it out, work it off) and other anger management or fear reduction methods
A "tunnel" formed at the wrist, by the flexor retinaculum and the carpal bones
The bony, narrow passage at the intersection of the hand and wrist on the same side of the palm of the hand The median nerve and tendons pass through this tunnel to the thumb, index, and middle fingers
{i} passageway in the wrist through which the tendons of the flexor muscles of the hand and fingers pass
A passageway in the wrist through which nerves and the flexor muscles of the hands and fingers pass
Space under a ligament in wrist through which the median nerve enters the palm of the hand
The space in the wrist where tendons and nerves to the hand are found
Passage under a ligament at the wrist through which the median nerve enters the palm of the hand
A small passage located below the wrist at the heel of the hand through which the major nerve to the hand, the median nerve, as well as tendons that bend the fingers pass
A tunnel on the palm side of the hand created between the arch formed by the carpal bones and the fibrous band that draws the ends of the arch together The long flexor tendons for the fingers pass through this tunnel, which holds themin and prevents them from bowing when the wrist is moved
A painful and disabling disorder caused by inflammation in the tendons that run through the narrow carpal tunnel in the wrist
carpal tunnel syndrome
A form of repetitive stress injury caused by compression of the median nerve travelling through the carpal tunnel
carpal tunnel syndrome
a compression of the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the heel of the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
is when the median nerve is entrapped at the wrist This may cause weakness, pain and numbness in the fingers and hand Can be caused by repetitive flexion and extension of the fingers and wrist
carpal tunnel syndrome
(CTS) is a type of compression neuropathy caused by compression and irritation of the median nerve in the wrist The nerve is compressed within the carpal tunnel, a bony canal in the palm side of the wrist that provides passage for the median nerve to the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
a condition in which the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, a narrow confined space Since the median nerve provides sensory and motor functions to the thumb and three middle fingers, many symptoms may result
carpal tunnel syndrome
— A nerve disorder in the hand that causes pain and loss of feeling
carpal tunnel syndrome
Refers to changes involving the median nerve in the wrists which causes numbness usually in the thumb, index and long finger of the hand It may occur secondary to repetitive abuse of the wrist such as in certain occupations or may sometimes be seen with rheumatic conditions which involve swelling in and around the wrist, such as is seen in rheumatoid arthritis
carpal tunnel syndrome
Swelling of the tendons which pass through the wrist and compress the median nerve Symptoms include pain, numbness and tingling in the hands, primarily the first three fingers and thumb Symptoms may also appear in the wrist and forearm CTS symptoms may even wake a person at night
carpal tunnel syndrome
A painful disorder in the hand caused by inflammation of the median nerve in the wrist bone CTS is commonly caused by repetitive motion, including pushing a wheelchair Splints may help; however, surgery is sometimes required to relieve pressure on the nerve
carpal tunnel syndrome
A condition causing pain, tingling, numbness and weakness in fingers and thumb
carpal tunnel syndrome
Occurs when the carpal tunnel space is reduced (e g when ther is swelling due to arthritis) The pressure on the (median) nerve causes pains and needles/numbness and/or pain in the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
A nerve disorder affecting the hand that may occur in people with diabetes; caused by a pinched nerve
carpal tunnel syndrome
Disorder found among frequent computer users, consisting of damage to nerves and tendons in the hands See also Repetitive strain injury
carpal tunnel syndrome
a disorder caused by compression of a nerve in the carpal tunnel (where the nerve passes through the wrist); characterized by discomfort and weakness in the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
injury to the nerve pathway in the wrist that is often caused by extensive typing and can usually be prevented or treated by exercises and anti-inflammatory agents

carpal tunnel syndrome
A compression of the median nerve caused by swelling tendons in the carpal tunnel Symptoms include numbness, pain, and tingling in the thumb and middle fingers, weak grip and diminished strength in the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
A condition caused by compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, characterized especially by discomfort and disturbances of sensation in the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
a condition in which a nerve in the wrist becomes inflamed and presses against the bones that make up the carpal tunnel, often resulting in pain Carpal tunnel syndrome is often caused by repetitive strain, and may also be a side effect of treatment with human growth hormone
carpal tunnel syndrome
Paresthesias (pain or numbness), affecting the thumb, index, middle and part of the ring finger
carpal tunnel syndrome
A painful condition caused by the swelling of the nerve that runs through the carpal tunnel in the wrist Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be caused by use of the computer keyboard Form more information on Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, click here and scroll down Book Suggestion: Crs Computer-Related Syndrome : The Prevention & Treatment of Computer-Related Injuries
carpal tunnel syndrome
It is entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel This occurs due to swelling of the median nerve and/or the tendons of the wrist
carpal tunnel syndrome
Compression of the median nerve at the wrist causing pain and numbness in the fingers
carpal tunnel syndrome
Where there is compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel, resulting in sensory and motor disturbances of the hand
carpal tunnel syndrome
swelling of the tendons in the carpal tunnel in the wrist, can put pressure on the median nerve which also passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, this can lead to discomfort, pain, tingling, and muscular weakness
carpal tunnel syndrome
Condition in which the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, a narrow confined space Median nerve provides sensory and motor functions to the thumb and three middle fingers, many symptoms may result Occurs when the carpal tunnel space is reduced (e g when there is swelling due to arthritis)
carpal tunnel syndrome
a pathology caused by the deposit of amyloid at the fatty tissue level of the wrist, with compression of the median nerve and alteration of the movement of the hands
carpal tunnel syndrome
A condition characterized by pain and numbing or tingling sensations in the hand and caused by compression of a nerve in the carpal tunnel at the wrist. a medical condition in which you have a lot of pain and weakness in your wrist. Painful condition caused by repetitive stress to the wrist over time. The median nerve and the tendons that bend the fingers pass through the carpal tunnel on the inner side of the wrist, between the wrist (carpal) bones on three sides and a ligament on the fourth. Repetitive finger and wrist movements rub the tendons against the walls of the carpal tunnel and may make the tendons swell, squeezing the nerve. Numbness, tingling, and pain in the wrist and hand may progress to loss of muscle control. CTS is most common in assembly-line workers and computer keyboard users. Treatment may include avoidance of the causative activity, ergonomic workplace design, anti-inflammatory drugs, brace or splint use, and surgery
carpal tunnel syndrome
pressure on the median nerve as it enters the hand through a tunnel in the wrist
