PAIN RELIEF from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

This video will go over some treatment ideas and exercises to help with CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME. The source of pain is likely compression of the median nerve inside the carpal tunnel. The median nerve is responsible for motor and sensory information to the hand. When it is compressed numbness and tingling usually occurs in the first 3.5 digits of the hand in addition to some hand weakness.
Within this video, I go over some self test to help identify carpal tunnel. The clinical tests are outlined below:
1. Phalen's Test
2. Tinel's Sign
3. Carpal Tunnel Compression Test
Treatment
1. Neutral Splint
Links to recommended brace 1: amzn.to/49ZatDx
Links to recommended brace 2: amzn.to/48YsPDC
2. Active Range of Motion of the Wrist (flexion, extension, radial deviation, and ulnar deviation)
3. Tendon Glides
4. Cardiovascular Activity (biking, running, walking, elliptical, swimming, etc)
Give these a try and let me know how it goes!
