What Causes Carpal Tunnel?
Ever noticed numbness or tingling in your thumb, index, and middle finger before? This is a very common symptom of Carpal Tunnel. This happens when the nerve that passes through the wrist to the hand gets pushed on or entrapped by tight muscles, ligaments, or bones causing the symptoms that you feel. It begins gradually, but if left untreated can include poor grip strength, decreased sensation in your fingers, and also muscles in the hand wasting away! It is often seen in people who are on a keyboard for long periods of time because of the angle of the wrist when you are typing or using a mouse.
