Suggest Treatment For Carpel Tunnel Syndrome Causing Pain In Right Hand
Yes, I m wondering what to do with my carpal tunnel syndrome? It seems to only bother me when I m sleeping. I wear a brace type thing on my hand which somewhat helps when I m sleeping. Mostly my right hand is affected. My thumb goes to sleep and once in a while there is a little pain going up to my armpit if I overdo the octaves! Would an accupuncturist help?

2. NSAID's to help with inflammation
3. Local steroid injections

I hope this helps. Good luck
