The Carpal Tunnel Syndrome For all computer users, please view through and take extra care--- BEWARE!!!!!

The Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) or Trigger Fingers is an entrapment idiopathic median neuropathy, causing paresthesia, pain, and other symptoms in the distribution of the median nerve due to its compression at the wrist in the carpal tunnel.

The Carpal Tunnel Syndrome The National Center for Biotechnology Information and highly cited older literature say the most common cause of CTS is typing.
