A member asked:
Could carpal tunnel (from too many video games) also cause upper back pain along with the pain & tingling in your wrist and arm?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not the carpal tunnel per se, but bad posture and lack of exercise is a more likely explanation for your symptoms. Regular aerobic exercise would help. Exercise 150 minutes/week at an intensity sufficient to induce sweating. Drink enough water so that your urine is mostly colorless. For healthy diet: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/.
