Frequently Asked Questions

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a condition that causes pain, numbness, and tingling in the hand and arm. It occurs when the median nerve, which controls movement and sensation in the thumb and first three fingers, is compressed as it travels through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. The compression of this nerve can lead to discomfort and affect the function of the hand.

The typical symptoms of CTS include numbness, tingling, burning, and pain in the thumb, index, middle, and ring fingers. Some people experience shock-like sensations that radiate to the fingers, as well as pain or tingling that travels up the forearm toward the shoulder. Weakness in the hand is also common.

Non-surgical treatments for mild CTS include exercises, stretching, and wearing a wrist splint to relieve pressure on the median nerve. Medications or corticosteroid injections may provide temporary relief. In more severe cases, surgical options like carpal tunnel release (CTR) can reduce pressure on the nerve, providing more permanent relief. Minimally invasive carpal tunnel release with ultrasound guidance is also an option, offering quicker recovery times.

After minimally invasive carpal tunnel release with ultrasound guidance, most patients can resume activities within 3-6 days. The procedure allows for immediate motion in the hand, so patients can quickly return to work and their daily lives.

Most patients find carpal tunnel release with UltraGuideCTR™ and ultrasound guidance to be a simple and minimally painful procedure. Performed under local anesthesia, the procedure involves a small incision, and patients typically report low pain levels. On a scale from 0 to 10, the average pain rating is 1.52 out of 10.

Carpal tunnel release is generally covered by commercial insurance and Medicare. However, the out-of-pocket cost for patients depends on their insurance plan and the location of the procedure. It’s important to verify coverage with your insurance carrier before undergoing treatment.
