Carpal Tunnel Syndrome develops when the median nerve in the wrist gets compressed, often due to repetitive hand use, long working hours, or underlying conditions. Over time, the numbness, tingling, and weakness can start interfering with simple activities like holding a phone or buttoning a shirt. At Dr Nikita Shetty Orthopaedic Surgeon in Mumbai, carpal tunnel syndrome surgery is considered when conservative care no longer brings relief.
Signs You May Need Carpal Tunnel Surgery
- Persistent numbness in fingers
- Night time hand pain or tingling
- Weak grip strength
- Frequent dropping of objects
How Carpal Tunnel Is Treated
Treatment begins with a detailed evaluation to confirm nerve compression
- Activity modification and splinting in early stages
- Medications or injections for symptom control
- Surgical release when nerve pressure persists
Why Timely Surgery Matters
Delaying surgery in advanced cases may lead to permanent nerve damage. Early intervention helps restore sensation and hand strength.
If wrist numbness or hand weakness is affecting daily life, schedule a consultation in Mumbai to explore treatment options.
