Several options: As with many conditions, best treatment is prevention. The main focus of prevention is proper use of your hand, wrist and upper extremity. Specifically avoidance of up and down and prolonged wrist motion is important. With established carpal tunnel syndrome, options would include splinting, therapy of various types, cortisone injection, and surgery. Check out www.Myhandhealth.Com.
