Carpal
Tunnel Syndrome is the number two cause of missed work after
back pain in the
American worker. The cause of CTS is that repetitive use of the forearm and
wrist as with Tennis Elbow tears the
ligaments over the back of the wrist. The
wrist is an arch of bones in two rows that create a tunnel through which pass
the tendons, arteries, nerves and veins to the hand in order of
compressibility. The most sensitive structure in the arch is the median nerve supplying the index through ring fingers. As this arcade collapses, the patient starts to suffer numbness and tingling at night, shooting pains in the hand and forearm, minor hand swelling and finally weakness and muscle loss as the nerves are permanently ruined. Remember
that the back of the wrist is injured as proven by many autopsy studies. The
surgeon goes in and cuts the only good tendon on the front of the wrist so the
bones are equally weak front and back to relieve the pressure! He even warns
you will be weaker after surgery. No surprise the surgery has a high failure
rate. Injections into the ligaments on the back of the wrist can rebuild the
damage and correct the problem in most cases. Early
management is superior to waiting until the muscles are ruined. The same wear
and tear that wears the elbow and wrist can break down the delicate ligaments
stabilizing the joints in the fingers and especially the thumb. Years of
continued use wears the
cartilage in these joints causing pain and weakness.
Prolotherapy can create remarkable relief in even badly worn joints. |
