Question: I have tingling in my hands. I think I have carpal tunnel syndrome, Can Chiropractic help relieve the symptoms? . Answer: Many people suffer from conditions collectively collec-tively called carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) that causes weakness, numbness, pain and or tingling in the hands, wrists and forearms. The symptoms are usually more prominent during the nighttime night-time and may be relieved by shaking or rubbing the hands. The wrist or carpal bones form a semi-circle acting as the roof of the carpal tunnel. The floor is formed by a strong.fibrous band which spans across the bottom of the arch. ,. Several tendons pass through the tunnel and a nerve known as the median nerve. When there is insufficient room for the contents of the tunnel, the median nerve becomes compressed and irritated and leads to the symptoms of carpal tunnel. - What causes it" and how can it be avoided? CTS is usually caused by repetitive strain injuries such as typing. Females are more likely to have CTS because of increased water retention. It is most common in women during pregnancy. After pregnancy it is likely to go away. , When typing for extended periods of time the hands and forearms are held in a relatively rela-tively constant position, with fingers and wrists only making mak-ing small movements. This does not allow for sufficient relaxation of the musculature. muscula-ture. Without much motion and relaxation, it creates low oxygen levels (hypoxia) in the tissue and forearm of the hands and wrists. Continued hypoxia leads to the formation of adhesions or fine scar tissue which are very stiff causing neighboring neighbor-ing structures to stick together. togeth-er. The inability to move independently tugs on the contents of the carpal tunnel, especially the median nerve, leading to the symptoms of CTS. A nerve can also be impaired im-paired at more than one location along its length-double length-double crush syndrome. FEfimi3,8.

Researchers have found that 70 of patients studied with CTS had evidence of multiple multi-ple lesions, with lesions most commonly found in the cervical cervi-cal region (neck). With multiple lesions along the median nerve, many times treatment of CTS at only the wrist is less than satisfactory because the median nerve is left in such a way that it can become symptomatic sym-ptomatic with any slight irritation. The common types of treatments for CTS are rest, taking pain medication and splinting of the wrist. If these don't work, cortisone injections injec-tions and or surgery are performed . ' Surgery involves cutting the floor out of the carpal tunnel. Chiropractic can also help with treatment of CTS through the removal of adhesions adhe-sions formed, clearing up multiple lesions along the median nerve, and through other techniques to reshape the carpal tunnel it if has been previously compromised. compro-mised. The causes and treatments of CTS continue to be studied. stud-ied. You may pick up a free copy of an indepth report at the Chiropractic office of Dr. Richard Olson in Springville, 222 N.
