Cause of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

What causes the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Hi Gracie,

People who don’t know how to sit properly, or correctly place their fingers and wrists on the keyboard, risk getting wrist issues and neck and shoulder stiffness.

Hi Gracie,

According to the Mayo Clinic, carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure on the median nerve. The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway surrounded by bones and ligaments on the palm side of your hand. When the median nerve is compressed, the symptoms can include numbness, tingling and weakness in the hand and arm.
