Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common condition that affects both young and old. The condition causes pain, numbness, and tingling sensation in the hand and arm due to the constriction of the median nerve passing through the wrist. This condition can be caused by several factors, including repetitive hand movements, traumatic injuries, or underlying medical conditions such as diabetes and obesity. Early detection and treatment are vital in managing this condition.
