Sort of ...: Coronavirus can cause pain in many joints including your wrists. It may feel like the carpal tunnel is getting worse but it’s not - it’s the coronavirus. Should improve over next 2-4 weeks

Infection: Any infection and/ or fever can cause symptomatic exacerbation of pre-existing conditions. This does not represent a progression of carpal tunnel, but is a temporary de-stabilization.
