Carpal Tunnel Syndrome with Surgical Release

This 3D medical animation depicts carpal tunnel syndrome and carpal tunnel release. Carpal tunnel syndrome is a nerve disorder of the hand caused by compression of the median nerve. Two different types of carpal tunnel release are animated, an open carpal tunnel procedure and the endoscopic approach.

I just had mine done two weeks ago and I have never felt better.

[tommaxwell]

Just had carpal tunnel release surgery this morning. I can tell these exercises will help a lot. Thx for posting!

[mcamacho]

This was the best decision I’ve ever made. I did my right hand in 2020 and just did my left one.

[mlvlatina]

This was the best surgery I have ever had. I just wish I wouldn't have waited so long to have it.

It's been seven years ago and I am pain free!

[moondust]

I’ve been experiencing this for two years now my doctor just told me I’m gonna have to get it done on both hands now I’m a HCA nurse I do transfers on my own and I’m an artiest you know how hard it is told a paint brush with numb fingers I’m happy it’s gonna get done soon

[thedyingunicorn]

Been trying for eleven years to get this surgery, I now have permanent damage because doctors didn’t want to listen to my pain and symptoms.

Having this tommorow finally. First my right hand, next month my left. I've had carpal tunnel since I was a teen. I'm 30 now and every day in pain. I cant wait for both of them to be done. (I'm ambidextrous so I use both hands equally)

[YelpBullhorn]

I had both wrists done laparoscopically six years ago at the same time! Bad idea! I couldn’t use either hand for about a week, and I was in absolute agony.

And I’ve had the left one done again recently, open method this time though, along with cubital tunnel release surgery (elbow) also left side. Neither of which was particularly debilitating or painful post-operatively.

[LiaVeniceMiranda]

I badly need that for both hands. Been suffering for 4 yrs now. Sadly... The therapy didn't do any better.. so I need that release surgery...

[JasTheGoose]

I might need this done. I got massive carpal tunnel from playing electric guitar.

[pamelamadison]

So I just had that 2nd procedure done. As of now there's a bit of discomfort. I'm hopeful that the post-op pain will be minimal.

I am happy to read that the surgery was successful and worth the having. We should all be so blessed with such outcome. 😊❤😊

Ok, but what is the point of that ligament that is cut? There’s no downside? What is/was the ligaments purpose?

[tiinau]

.... 2 gånger höger.. Handled... 1 gång vänster.... Tittade på operationen... Finsk bra kirurg... 👍❤️✌️🇫🇴✍️🙃🌻🦋🤫

[sangwoochung]

so what happened to transverse ligament? grow back? I am pretty sure it has function.
Do you guys lose grip strength

[mintycbo]

I get scheduled for the endoscopic procedure in 2 weeks..
(My doctor is booked for 2 weeks for surgeries).
This is the video form of what he told me / showed me in books and on my hand with a pen.
Right hand first. then my left hand after right heals..then after my left hand is healed. need to get my cubical tunnel done as well in left elbow (ulnar nerve). think i'm in good hands so far. (pun intended. hehe). thanks for the vid.

[mtgamer]

That's it.... it stays cut, I thought that band across the carpal tunnel is a tendon and wouldent your hand be floppy now 😂

[theelusivememe]

What the difference between the open and other procedure?

[rebeccabacon]

I'm freaking 25 yrs old and I'm looking at having this done in the next few months. I'm right handed and I have also fractured my right arm and broke my right collar bone and also 2 weeks after that got into a car accident (wasn't my dad's fault as he was driving). I'm freaking terrified of needles even seeing me bleed from a hang nail makes me grossed out. But first within the next month or so I have to have a nerve test basically to confirm my neurologists diagnosis. I've tried the carpal tunnel braces and it has just gotten worse since I see him last (seen him yesterday) before that was 11months ago. As he's over an hr away. Yall may say that's nothing but it literally took forever to get in then I had to reschedule my apps due to my son needing me cause he was sick. I just started watching cause I was curious now I'm freaking terrified. But he says he's sending me to one of the best neurosurgeons there is in my state.

[shivakumarkotimath]

I understood the procedure but after surgery the pa'nt howmuch days recure to recover?
And if they need bed rest?

[mrogy]

SO, if she/he cut the carpal tunnel, will it grow back ? Or its for a lifetime procedure ?
