Yes: Yes, carpal tunnel syndrome results in pain and discomfort from repetitive movements. It does not limit you from any activity, including tennis.

Yes: As a fellow tennis player with carpal tunnel syndrome, i still play quite a bit. However, i would recommend precautions, such as taping/bandaging up the wrist and/or wearing a wrist brace for support. I actually do both, and this has helped me to continue playing tennis.
