So activity modification is very important.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nAfter that, splinting is very helpful, especially at night. Many people wake up in the middle of the night with their hands numb and tingling. It&#8217;s a very common symptom of carpal tunnel syndrome. That symptom can often times be controlled by wearing a brace on your wrist at night. Wearing a brace during the day usually just makes you do things differently and may actually aggravate the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome because you&#8217;re doing things in a more awkward fashion. But at night, splinting can be very helpful.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe other time that splinting is useful is when you&#8217;re driving a car or something like that where you&#8217;re doing prolonged gripping, and again, the splint helps to hold your wrist in a straighter position that can be helpful.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nThe third nonsurgical treatment that is particularly effective is a cortisone injection into the wrist. We don&#8217;t know exactly how it works, but it does seem to provide at least temporary relief in almost everybody with carpal tunnel syndrome, and in about a third of people, it can provide quite long-lasting relief.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nSo, activity modifications, splinting at night and cortisone injections are the main nonoperative treatments that help. Vitamins, anti-inflammatory medications, fluid pills, things of those natures, don&#8217;t appear to be as effective.\n<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nonsurgical treatments can help improve carpal tunnel syndrome, a Mayo Clinic surgeon explains.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[1686,1685,1682,1684],"class_list":["post-50822","mayo","type-mayo","status-publish","hentry","tag-anatomical-structure","tag-condition","tag-person-group-concept","tag-theme-of-focus","content_type-diseases-conditions"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Video: Carpal tunnel symptoms &mdash;
