Problem Section: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common condition that arises from pressure on the median nerve as it travels through the wrist in a narrow passage called the carpal tunnel. This pressure often results in pain, tingling, numbness, and weakness in the hand and fingers, particularly the thumb, index, and middle fingers. 

The problem becomes more severe with repetitive hand and wrist movements, improper ergonomic setups, or prolonged use of vibrating tools. If left untreated, CTS can significantly impact daily activities such as typing, gripping objects, or performing fine motor tasks, potentially leading to long-term nerve damage.

Key concerns include:

• Persistent numbness and tingling in the fingers
• Weakening grip strength
• Difficulty performing precise tasks
• Potential for permanent nerve damage if untreated
