What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs from your forearm into your hand gets compressed as it travels through a narrow passage in the wrist, called the carpal tunnel. This nerve controls movement and feeling in your thumb and most of your fingers, and when pinched, one notices symptoms like:

• Fingers(particularly the thumb, index, and middle fingers) experience numbness or tingling
• Discomfort in the wrist, palm, or forearm
• Weakness in your hand or trouble gripping objects
• Symptoms that wake you up at night or worsen with hand use

Our Approach to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Treatment

Dr. Anita Gottipati, MD takes an optimal approach towards treating and managing your Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Dr Gottipati starts by getting to know your symptoms, your lifestyle, and any underlying causes that may be contributing to the issue. Dr. Gottipati's goal is to provide the least invasive, yet most effective treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Non-Surgical Treatments

For many patients, non-surgical options provide great relief, especially when started early.

Options include:

• Wrist Splints: Wearing a brace, especially at night, to keep your wrist in a neutral position and reduce pressure on the nerve.
• Anti-inflammatory Medications: Over-the-counter or prescribed medications to reduce swelling
• Activity Modifications: Adjusting repetitive hand movements that aggravate symptoms
• Corticosteroid Injections: Targeted injections to quickly reduce inflammation around the median nerve
• Stretching & Physical Therapy: Exercises to improve mobility and strengthen hand muscles

Surgical Treatment

When non-surgical treatments no longer provide relief, Dr. Gottipati may recommend a minimally invasive procedure called carpal tunnel release. This outpatient surgical procedure involves relieving pressure on the median nerve by cutting the ligament that forms the roof of the carpal tunnel. Most patients experience significant improvement shortly after recovery.
