Many find that the symptoms take less and less effort to produce then just never go away. They are usually the consequence of a Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI) such as Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) Surgery is often not a cure and many people will never overcome it once it becomes severe.

http://danke.com/Orthodoc/carpaltunnel.html

Extractions: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition of compressive entrapment of the median nerve at the wrist segment with associated pain and possibly motor deficit, predominantly of the thenar muscles. Hand and wrist pain, including motor deficit, may be caused by any number of other things other than CTS. (Click here to see a medical illustration of carpal tunnel syndrome.) There is a specific and predictable path a chronic, cumulative, compressive neuropathy will take. As the nerve is compressed certain changes begin to take place which include both direct morphological changes in the nerve fibers as well as ischemic changes. Usually the smallest diameter, unmyelinated fibers are affected first. These are followed by larger myelinated sensory fibers, and finally by myelinated motor fibers. By the time a person presents with complaints of numbness, paresthesias, pain, or motor deficit, nerve damage has progressed to the stage of larger fiber sensory and/or motor loss. Changes can be measured at this stage with conventional electroneurography and will manifest as slowed conduction across the wrist segment and possibly reduction in amplitude of the compound muscle action potential representative of axonal loss of motor fibers. It can be reasonably determined if the condition is early, moderate, or severe. The problem with the median nerve is that it is a relatively lonely soft tissue structure sharing confined space with nine flexor tendons as it travels through the carpal tunnel. Any condition which reduces that space is likely to cause CTS due to compression of the vulnerable median nerve. Any solution which relieves pressure on the nerve and promotes circulation in the microvascular neural blood supply is likely to "cure" CTS and relieve its attendant symptoms of pain, etc.

At the base of the palm is a tight canal or tunnel through which tendons and a nerve going from the forearm to the hand have to pass to get into the hand. The nerve that passes through this narrow tunnel to reach the hand is called the Median nerve . This narrow passage between the forearm and hand is what we call the carpal tunnel The carpal tunnel is normally quite snug and there is just barely enough room in it for the tendons and one nerve that have to pass through it. If anything takes up extra room in the canal, things become too tight and the nerve in the canal becomes constricted or "pinched". This pinching of the nerve causes numbness and tingling in the area of the hand that the nerve goes to. The symptoms caused by the median nerve being pinched in the carpal tunnel are called the " carpal tunnel syndrome The Median nerve is the only nerve that passes through the carpal tunnel. This nerve provides the

Avoiding Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Avoiding carpal tunnel syndrome A guide for computer keyboard users. by Mark Sheehan SUMMARY.carpal tunnel syndrome is common among computer keyboard users.
http://www.indiana.edu/~ucsstaff/cts.html

Extractions: A guide for computer keyboard users by Mark Sheehan Reprinted from the University Computing Times, July-August 1990, pages 17-19. Carpal tunnel syndrome is common among computer keyboard users. It can strike anyone, and its consequences are serious. Awareness of the problem and its causes is crucial to preventing CTS. With proper ergonomics and attention to the work routine you can prevent CTS; with early detection and treatment it need never become debilitating. The employer's attention to stress levels, proper ergonomics, and the early warning signs of CTS are important in keeping the ailment at bay in the workplace. Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a painful, debilitating condition. It involves the median nerve and the flexor tendons that extend from the forearm into the hand through a "tunnel" made up of the wrist bones, or carpals, and the transverse carpal ligament. As you move your hand and fingers, the flexor tendons rub against the sides of the tunnel. This rubbing can cause irritation of the tendons, causing them to swell. When the tendons swell they apply pressure to the median nerve. The result can be tingling, numbness, and eventually debilitating pain. CTS affects workers in many fields. It is common among draftsmen, meatcutters, secretaries, musicians, assembly-line workers, computer users, automotive repair workers, and many others. CTS can be treated with steroids, anti- inflammatories, or physical therapy, or with surgery to loosen the transverse carpal ligament. Recovery of wrist and hand function is often, but not always, complete.
