A member asked:
How much ibuprofen for carpal tunnel syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable by symptoms: Studies have shown that anti-inflamatories had little effect on eliminating or curing carpal tunnel syndrome. Ibuprofen can be effective in controlling the pain and parasthesias of carpal tunnel. The dosing should depend on the level of symptoms and your response.
