Medical diagnosis procedure

How is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Diagnosed?

Diagnosis includes a combination of medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests:

  • Tapping on the wrist or bending it to reproduce symptoms.
  • Measures electrical activity in muscles to check nerve damage.
  • Evaluates the speed of signals passing through the median nerve.
  • Helps identify structural causes of nerve compression.
  • Recommended if bone deformities or arthritis are suspected.

Advanced Treatment Options for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Pristyn Care Sheetla offers both non-surgical and surgical treatments:

Non-Surgical Approaches:

  • Wrist splints to keep the wrist in a neutral position.
  • Medications like NSAIDs to reduce pain and inflammation.
  • Corticosteroid injections to relieve swelling.
  • Lifestyle adjustments and ergonomic modifications.

Surgical Options:

  • Open Carpal Tunnel Release: A small incision is made in the palm to cut the ligament, relieving pressure on the median nerve.
  • Endoscopic Carpal Tunnel Release: A minimally invasive approach using a small camera and surgical tools to release the ligament through tiny incisions.

Both procedures are highly effective in restoring normal hand function and preventing further nerve damage.

Recovery Time

Recovery time varies depending on the type of surgery and severity of the condition. Patients undergoing endoscopic surgery usually return to daily activities within 2 to 3 weeks. Open surgery may take 4 to 6 weeks for complete recovery. Strength and grip return gradually with physiotherapy, and full recovery is usually achieved within 2 to 3 months.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Before Procedure:
The doctor will conduct diagnostic tests and review your medical history. You may be advised to stop certain medications and follow specific guidelines for surgery preparation.

During Procedure:
The surgery takes 20–40 minutes under local or regional anesthesia. The surgeon releases the transverse carpal ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve.

After Procedure:
The wrist will be bandaged, and mild pain or swelling may occur. Patients can start moving fingers immediately to prevent stiffness. Follow-up visits ensure proper healing.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

  • Week 1–2: Pain and swelling managed with medications, stitches may be removed if necessary.
  • Week 3–4: Gradual improvement in grip and finger movements, light activities resumed.
  • Week 5–6: Most patients return to work, except jobs involving heavy lifting.
  • Month 3: Full recovery with regained strength and function.

Post-treatment care includes:

  • Keeping the wrist elevated for the first few days.
  • Avoiding heavy activities until cleared by the doctor.
  • Following physiotherapy exercises to restore mobility.
  • Using ergonomic tools and correct posture for long-term protection.
