✋💻 Check your desk setup

Your workstation setup can place extra strain on your hands and wrists when typing or using a mouse for long periods.

A few small changes can help:
✔️ Keep wrists in a neutral position
✔️ Avoid high keyboard tilt
✔️ Keep your mouse close to the keyboard
✔️ Take regular breaks and alternate tasks

Ergonomic equipment like a split keyboard or vertical mouse can also help support a more natural hand position.

Cubital Tunnel Syndrome – What You Should Know 👋
Ever felt numbness or tingling in your ring and little finger? You might be experiencing cubital tunnel syndrome — a condition caused by irritation or compression of the ulnar nerve at the inside of the elbow.

💪 Conservative Management
Many cases improve without surgery:
• Night splinting
• Activity modification (avoiding prolonged elbow flexion/leaning on the elbow)
• Ergonomic adjustments
• Nerve gliding exercises
• Anti-inflammatory strategies

🏥 When Is Surgery Needed?
If symptoms persist, worsen, or muscle weakness develops, surgery may be recommended.
Common procedures:
• Ulnar nerve decompression
• Ulnar nerve transposition

🔄 Post-Op Recovery
• Sling if requested by treating surgeon
• Wound and scar management
• Gentle range of motion exercises (depending on procedure)
• Gradual strengthening
• Full recovery varies based on severity before surgery

🗓️ If you’re noticing persistent numbness, tingling or weakness — don’t ignore it. Early treatment leads to better outcome. See a hand therapist to assess your symptoms and explore your treatment options.

Therapy Tools in Action 💚
TheraPutty is a clinic favourite for a reason! From improving grip and pinch strength to enhancing finger isolation and dexterity, it’s a simple tool that delivers powerful results.
Plus, with different resistance levels, we can tailor it to every stage of recovery 🙌
Just don’t forget — store it safely… it has a habit of sticking where it shouldn’t! 😅
