What is a carpal tunnel syndrome?
There are many causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. It appears after a wrist injury, tendonitis, hormonal changes (pregnancy, menopause, contraception) or during long-term monotonous work with the wrist.
There are also several methods of treatment. At early stages, resting periods and application of corticoids may be sufficient. However, for fully developed illness, there is no other solution than surgery.
Whom will Carpal Tunnel Syndrome surgery help?
He will exclude or prove the syndrome’s occurrence on the basis of special examinations and recommends you to go to a facility that performs the procedure.
The sooner the syndrome is detected, the easier it will be to cure it, not only for the surgeon but also for you. In more severe cases, a longer recovery time is possible and the finger function may not be fully restored.
Whom do we not let to undergo the surgery?
For pregnant and breastfeeding women, it is necessary to wait with surgery; for smokers, we strongly recommend that you stop smoking for at least several weeks. Smokers have a worse healing process and because safety and customer satisfaction are in the first place, we want to eliminate all the risks.

What is the preoperative preparation like??
The procedure is performed in local anesthesia, therefore a basic preoperative examination will be required. It is also necessary to stop using blood thinning medications containing acetylsalicylic acid and enzyme preparations. Smoking has already been discussed, stop smoking for at least a few weeks before surgery.
What happens during the surgery of carpal tunnel syndrome?
The procedure is simple, it takes about half an hour with an experienced surgeon, the patient may then go straight home. It is, however, necessary to follow certain post-operative recommendations.
Can any complications occur?
What is the recovery like?
The length of recovery depends on the level of nerve damage, sometimes patients wait a few days, weeks, other times for the sensitivity to return takes even longer than a year. In severe cases, the sensitivity does not have to reach the original levels from before the disease. We will do everything we can to make it work, but we also need you to work with us. Postoperative care matters a lot.
For the first few days keep the hand dry and clean, for a few weeks, you will have a plaster. Stitches remain inside for about 14 days and after the wound heals there is rehabilitation. We recommend pressure massage of the scar that will assist the healing process. Rub the scar with a fatty lotion.
Inability to work may last variously long. It depends a lot on where you work. Do not stress your hand, do not carry a heavy bag, avoid it from being strained. We recommend that you schedule the procedure in a way that you can then keep it resting.
