Double crush injuries - do you have carpal tunnel syndrome or is the problem in your neck?

      

 

Carpal tunnel syndrome continues to have a high incident rate in computer operators and professions that use their hands repetitively. But is the problem purely compression to the median nerve in the wrist? 

 

It is important to have areas checked in which this nerve passes through from its neck origin.  A recent article published in the Journal of Hand Surgery encourages practitioners to look at the "Big Picture" when evaluating hand pain. Faulty posture continues to be a high risk factor for carpal tunnel syndrome. If you are having hand pain, numbness, or tingling, a physical therapy evaluation may help identify and correct the problem.
