CTS: Some cases of cts can be treated conservatively with splinting and steroid injections, but most cases are treated surgically with a carpal tunnel release with relatively few recurrences. In most cases, cts doesn't lead to long term disability.

Report it: Theyll know anyway. Surgery cures it most cases.
