Exercises for Carpal tunnel syndrome?!
Question: Does anyone know of any good websites with illustrations for carpal tunnel exercises? my shoulder is killing me too, so if you know any for shoulder exercises that would be great...
I have had CTS for years, and I have found exercises help a lot! mine is to the point I have throbbing pains along with my numbness followed by itching once the numbness starts to go away...i am miserable!!!! they wake me up all night, and the pain is so bad i want to cry!
I was supposed to have surgery a few years ago, but had to have other type of emergency surgery instead for something else, so it was cancelled...I can't get surgery done until sept. due to waiting period on my new insurance. =o(

A good site that may help you find some exercises for the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome til you can have surgery is at: http://physicaltherapy.about.com
Bracing them may also be an option to help ease some of the pain til you have surgery (an example only).
I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see maybe about a consultation with a physical therapist to see what they say.
