Carpal tunnel issues: A person who had worked with his hands for many years, can develop problems with the nerves in the hands or arms. Symptoms can come from some parts of nerves getting compressed, as in carpal tunnel syndrome. A primary care doctor, an occupational medicine doctor, an orthopedic doctor, or a rheumatologist can do an exam, look for the cause, and start treatment. Sometimes, surgery is needed.

Carpal Tunnel: The treatment involves nsaid's, splints, therapy and rest and surgery is usually considered after 6-12 weeks of conservative measures, or if there is weakness in the hands/fingers.
