Hi, I would like to hear if anyone knows,is
surgery the only choice for people? it may be if
its way far progressed.I feel I havent found
enough evidence to convince me yet other then
releasing or cutting the transverse tendon to
release pressure on the nerves.how does that
really help? what happens if your nerves swell
again then the same results? carpel tunnel.
I mean what ive seen here are people trying to
get relief and get back theyre normal feeling
hands.but what causes the problem to begin with?
R.S.I...repetitive strain injury.that causes the
swelling causing carpel tunnel from what ive read.
Ive been told I should have the surgery.
but I want it to be the cure all which I havent
seen yet. my main question is is there a way to
cause the nerves to stop being adjatated then they
will stop swelling causing the problems to stop?
is that crazy for wondering that? I mean cutting
the tunnel only seems to give the nerves more
room to swell if we dont change the form in which
were performing something.
