Safe and effective carpal tunnel release surgery
Carpal tunnel release is a surgical procedure that aims to relieve pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia and involves making a small incision in the wrist to access the carpal tunnel. The surgeon then cuts the ligament that is pressing on the median nerve, allowing it to move more freely and reducing pain and tingling in the hand and fingers. The procedure typically takes less than an hour to complete and patients can usually return to normal activities within a few weeks. Complications are rare, but may include infection, bleeding, or nerve damage. Overall, carpal tunnel release is a safe and effective treatment option for those suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome.
