im 20, and last december, i got diagnosed with carpal tunnel in both my hands, before i got diagnosed with it i would always notice my hands falling asleep, than later on at night i couldn’t sleep because of the pain my hands were in, it felt like they were asleep but getting poked my nails, i had to quit my job because i couldn’t get any sleep, than i went to the hospital and the doctor were even shocked because of how young i was to have it, idk how i got it, possibly from playing football, i was in a real bad situation, i couldn’t get surgery cause of no insurance, so i had to get cast for my wrist, i only use them when i sleep. i wouldn’t wish this on anyone, god bless

Honestly, I only watched this cuz one guy said:
"Fighting this boss is like speedrunning carpal tunnel"

My carpal tunnel was caused by inflammation of the body. Clue: it effected both wrists. Went to surgery seminar but luckily changed my diet, inflammation of the body went away and surprisingly my carpal tunnel disappeared.
I did an elimination diet.
Good luck,

Amazing video, as amateur Neurodiagnostic technologist this was informative but not too overwhelming!

8:40 - that’s how they recently figured out that I had carpal tunnel syndrome in my left hand. I’ve experienced the painful hand / wrist jerks and freezes for about 7 years now roughly and usually I thought it was due to hydration. But I work all day on a keyboard in the IT field, I jammed my wrist in my early teens as a kid, tore ligaments in my lower portion of my thumb as a child and jammed my ring finger all on the same hand through out my life so it all makes sense in my situation

as a 17 y/o art major, i developed CT like symptoms right after the completion of my very first school artwork 🤩
we tried everything before eventually going to the doctor, but absolutely nothing worked
the doctor suggested it may be CT, and im getting tested soon

I just started to learn how to play golf for three month to get back in shape as well as to manage my diabetes and now i think i got CTS in both my hand probably because for three month I've been hitting like 600-800 golf balls everyday at the driving range.. I also think for 12+ years working using the keyboard also making me more prone to CTS thus it got worse when i started golf as a sport.. I wish i could recover from this condition without any surgery though..

Degenerative cervical myelopathy = also another important cause of bilateral carpal tunnel

I've just lost most feeling in my fingers, other than the severe tingling sensation and pain. It may be finally time for surgery 😔

[Avocadocat-qotb]

[studioedin]
