I thought about it several times, since it is quite common in my family.
Then I just forgot about it, until about 1 year ago my hands were really painful, I did all the tests and no CTS...
So again I do not even think about it.

difficult diagnosis Nov 2, 2017

Many times even doctors are wrong about the CTS, many times it's due to cervical, shoulder or back problems. Better see a good physiotherapist who can put it right and teach you a few exercises to prevent it getting worse. About 80% of operations are unnecessary and useless.

Thanks for giving me another thing to worry about!


And I surely will not do any search to find out anything about one more disease. It has been proven by scientists that the psychosomatic factor of most diseases is very significant, so the best you do is not to know anything about them or you will develop them in yourself.
