I am scheduled for a carpall tunnel nerve study. is this painful? my symptoms have now subsided with night splinting and icing wrists. study needed

??: You could hold off on the tests esp if your symptoms are under good control with the measures done so far.

No, not necessary: The nerve conduction test is not painful. I agree with others that the test is not needed now. If your symptoms are improving with splint age. In fact, this improvement localizes your symptoms to the wrist and are almost as good a test as nerve conduction.
