Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Causes, Symptoms, Treatment & Best Care at Elrevo Clinic, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad)

Introduction

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common nerve compression disorder affecting the hand and wrist, causing pain, numbness, and weakness. This condition occurs when the median nerve, which runs through the carpal tunnel in the wrist, gets compressed due to swelling or anatomical factors. Without timely treatment, CTS can lead to permanent nerve damage, affecting hand function and daily activities.

At Elrevo Clinic, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad), we specialize in the advanced diagnosis and treatment of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, ensuring optimal recovery with minimal downtime.

Alternative Names

  • Median Nerve Compression
  • Wrist Nerve Entrapment
  • Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI)
  • Work-related Musculoskeletal Disorder (WMSD)

Common Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome often starts with mild discomfort and gradually worsens over time. Common symptoms include:
✔ Numbness and tingling in the thumb, index, middle, and half of the ring finger
✔ Weakness in the hand, making it difficult to grip objects
✔ Pain or burning sensation in the wrist and forearm
✔ Worsening symptoms at night, disturbing sleep
✔ Difficulty in fine motor tasks like buttoning clothes or holding a pen

Investigations for Diagnosing Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

At Elrevo Clinic, Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar (Aurangabad), we use advanced diagnostic tools to confirm CTS, including:
🩺 Clinical Examination – Assessing symptoms, sensory loss, and muscle weakness
Nerve Conduction Study (NCS) – Measures how fast the median nerve transmits signals
🔬 Electromyography (EMG) – Evaluates muscle response to nerve signals
📸 Ultrasound or MRI – Helps visualize nerve compression and rule out other conditions

Medical Treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

For mild to moderate cases, non-surgical treatment can effectively relieve symptoms:
Wrist Splints – Helps keep the wrist in a neutral position, especially during sleep
Medications – Anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and pain relievers
Physiotherapy & Hand Exercises – Strengthening and stretching exercises improve flexibility
Corticosteroid Injections – Reduces inflammation and relieves nerve compression
Lifestyle Modifications – Ergonomic adjustments for workstations, avoiding repetitive wrist motions

Surgical Treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

If symptoms persist despite conservative treatments, Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery is recommended. At Elrevo Clinic, we offer:
🔹 Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release – Minimally invasive, faster recovery, less scarring
🔹 Open Carpal Tunnel Surgery – Traditional method with a small incision for better access
🔹 Microsurgical Techniques – Performed under high magnification for precision and nerve preservation

These day-care procedures allow patients to return home the same day and experience long-term relief.

Aftercare & Recovery Post-Surgery

To ensure a smooth recovery, post-operative care is crucial:
✔ Keep the hand elevated to reduce swelling
✔ Follow prescribed pain medications and antibiotics
✔ Start gentle wrist exercises as advised by your doctor
✔ Avoid strenuous activities for a few weeks
✔ Attend follow-up appointments for monitoring recovery

Most patients resume daily activities within 2–3 weeks and experience full recovery within 6–8 weeks.
