Carpal Tunnel Syndrome has received a lot of attention in the last few years because of suggestions that it may be linked with jobs that require repeated use of the hands. Dr. Robert E. Berry, world-renowned Dallas orthopedic surgeon, offers carpal tunnel treatment in Dallas, Texas.
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is more common in women and those between the ages of 30 and 60 years old. It is one of the most common nerve entrapment syndromes, affecting up to 10% of the population. Those with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome may feel numbness, pain, and a “tingly” sensation in their fingers, wrists, arms, and may have difficulty performing grasping and gripping activities. They may even experience a bump on finger or on the back of the wrist.
