Carpal Tunnel Syndrome & Nerve Hydrodissection
Accurate diagnosis of median nerve compression at the wrist, with a minimally invasive, ultrasound‑guided treatment option.
Overview
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed as it passes through the wrist, causing numbness, tingling, or weakness in the hand. Electrodiagnostic testing confirms the diagnosis and its severity, guiding whether conservative care, a minimally invasive procedure, or surgical referral is the right next step.
Symptoms This Test Helps Explain
• Numbness or tingling in the thumb, index, and middle fingers.
• Symptoms that worsen at night or with repetitive hand use.
• Weak grip or a tendency to drop objects.
What to Expect
For appropriate candidates, ultrasound‑guided nerve hydrodissection uses an injected fluid layer to gently separate the median nerve from surrounding tissue that may be compressing it — a minimally invasive alternative that can be performed in the office, without the recovery time of surgery.
