Carpal tunnel syndrome is the impairment of motor and/or sensory function of the median nerve as it traverses through the carpal tunnel. It is the most commonly diagnosed and treated entrapment neuropathy. Intrinsic swelling or extrinsic compression of the nerve causes progressively worsening symptoms that can be debilitating and prevent individuals from engaging in hobby or work activities. The image shown is of an individual who has undergone bilateral carpal tunnel repair surgery with a flexor retinaculum release on the left and ulnar nerve mobilization on the right.
