Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that causes numbness, tingling, and sometimes pain in the fingers and the hand.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) ranges from mild to severe. Proper treatment can often restore the functioning of the hand and wrist and relieve symptoms.
The condition affects between 4 and 10 million Americans. Home remedies may help to manage and ease the symptoms of mild to moderate CTS. However, severe CTS may require surgery.
