Chiropractic Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome in Flower Mound, TX
Conservative support for tingling, numbness and hand fatigue
Waking up with numb fingers or dropping things because your hand feels weak can be worrying. Palmercare Chiropractic Flower Mound offers conservative care for carpal tunnel symptoms, looking at the wrist, forearm, shoulder and neck with Dr. Madison Molitor.
Understanding Chiropractic Care for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through a narrow channel in the wrist. Repetitive hand motion, wrist position, swelling, pregnancy and certain health conditions can contribute.
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke explains causes, diagnosis and treatment in its overview of carpal tunnel syndrome. Persistent numbness or weakness should be evaluated by a physician, since delayed treatment can lead to lasting nerve damage.
Carpal tunnel symptoms often include:
- Tingling or numbness in the thumb, index and middle fingers
- Night-time hand symptoms that wake you
- A weak or clumsy grip
- Burning or aching in the wrist
- Relief when shaking the hand
