Your median nerve which passes through the Carpal Tunnle in the wrist area is being squeezed by the inflamed tunnle area. This puts pressure on your nerve and you sart feeling numb then pain.

You need to reduce the pressure on the median nerve. In my opinion and experience surgery is best, others will tell you massage and other therapies. You need to act before the nerve is damaged for good.

: Hi, everyone. I started having numbness and tingling in both hands several months ago, especially in my right hand. It has become progressively worse, and now the symptoms occur after I hold onto anything for more than a few minutes--for example, the telephone, driving, writing, using scissors or a knife. I could tolerate the numbness, but it has become painful. Every night I wake up with severe pain, which goes all the way up to my upper arm. It lasts about 30 minutes. Is it common for CTS to cause this much difficulty?
: Rita
