New York Carpal Tunnel Decompression

Ever felt the tingling in the fingers and hand or perhaps higher on the forearm? There's a nerve that runs deep inside the wrist and through the carpal tunnel.

Essentially, when you're feeling the tingling, you're experiencing a pressure that occurs from the nerve not having enough room as it runs through the tunnel. Because the nerve has this kind of pressure applied to it, the sensation you feel in your wrist, fingers or forearm is what results. At times this tingling feeling may develop into something a bit more painful and a carpal tunnel decompression may be required to relieve your of such pain.

Carpal Tunnel Decompression Surgery

Simply put, a small incision is made into the palm of your hand in order to cut a small part of the roof of the tunnel in order to give your nerve sufficient room and space. Hence the name it was given, carpal tunnel decompression.
