Carpel tunnel: For this case of 34 weeks gestation with carpel tunnel syndrome. The key to management is conservative for the rest of your pregnancy. You can approach it as follows: 1. Avoid those activities that make it worse. 2. Splint use at night can give some relief. 3. Engage in exercises that give you relief. Please see your doctor if the symptoms get worse. Good luck.
