Relieve Carpal Tunnel Pain with Therapeutic Injections
A therapeutic injection for carpal tunnel syndrome is a medical procedure where a medication is injected into the wrist to alleviate symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. The procedure involves the use of a needle to inject a corticosteroid medication into the wrist joint. The medication helps to reduce inflammation and swelling in the carpal tunnel, which can relieve pressure on the median nerve and alleviate pain, tingling, and numbness in the hand and wrist. The procedure is typically performed in a doctor’s office or clinic and can be completed in just a few minutes. Patients may experience some discomfort during the injection, but this is usually minimal and temporary. Most patients experience significant relief from their symptoms within a few days or weeks following the injection. In some cases, multiple injections may be necessary to achieve optimal results.
