CARPAL tunnel syndrome occurs when pressure is exerted on the nerve that goes from the forearm to the hand.
This pressure causes pain, numbness and pins and needles in the thumb and index and middle fingers.
Women between 40 and 60 are most at risk. The symptoms can disappear without treatment, but sometimes surgery is necessary.
If you are suffering from this condition, avoid alcohol, caffeine and smoking.
