You should seek treatment for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) if you experience any of the following symptoms:
Early Signs (Mild Symptoms) – Numbness, tingling, or burning sensations in the thumb, index, middle, or ring fingers (especially at night).Hand weakness or a tendency to drop objects.
Moderate to Severe Symptoms – Persistent pain or numbness that doesn’t go away after rest.Weakened grip strength, making it hard to hold small objects.Loss of sensation in the fingers or difficulty distinguishing between hot and cold.
Emergency Signs – Complete loss of feeling in your fingers.Muscle wasting at the base of the thumb (a sign of advanced nerve damage).
Why Early Treatment Matters: Delaying treatment can lead to permanent nerve damage and muscle atrophy, making recovery more difficult. Early intervention through wrist splints, physical therapy, medication, or surgery (if needed) can prevent long-term complications.
