A member asked:
Please explain if it is possible to have carpal tunnel syndrome in your ankle/foot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not exactly, similar: While carpal tunnel, by definition, is compression of the median nerve in the wrist, there are nerve compression syndromes that also occur in the legs and feet. A neurologist can help determine what, if any, nerves are affected and how to best relieve your symptoms.
