Carpal Tunnel Release

You are here: Home / Procedures / Hand Surgery / Carpal Tunnel Release

The carpal tunnel is a passageway through the wrist carrying tendons and one of the hand’s major nerves. Pressure may build up within the tunnel because of disease, injury, fluid retention during pregnancy, overuse or repetitive motions. The resulting pressure on the nerve within the tunnel causes a tingling sensation in the hand, often accompanied by numbness, aching and impaired hand function. This is known as carpal tunnel syndrome.

In some cases, splinting of the hand and anti-inflammatory medications will relieve the problem. If this doesn’t work, surgery may be required. Carpal tunnel surgery is commonly done in our office with local anesthesia and oral sedation.
