Hello frens :)

Looking for natural and practical suggestions/solutions to help alleviate carpal tunnel pain and symptoms.

A family member is suffering and in a lot of pain while at work, lots of time on the computer. Any luck with specific braces, workstations, or anything non surgical and not big pharma that may help with the pain?

Thank you for helping! :)

I used arnica & stuff but finally gave in to surgery after I drove myself to the ER & begged them to cut my left arm off. Above the elbow. The pain was excruciating & back feeding from hand to elbow. There are two options with the surgery. Option 1 is the broad path & the one I choose as it’s more easily to recover from, which as it turns out, is the one where you NEVER regain function of your hands like it was originally. Basically the easy option (as I understand it), slices the tendon above entrance to the bone the nerve passes thru, to alleviate pressure…but have you heard of hamstringing a horse?…because that in a manner of speaking is what is done with this method.
Option 2 is the narrow path and requires more recovery time. Hope I rem correctly…they excavate the opening where the nerve is passing thru the bone to give it more room which doesn’t damage to the tendon, but as a much larger incision is required, so is the lay up time.
My advise…qigong, massage or change jobs.

Thanks for your input! The Dr is recommending surgery and I haven't heard good things so far. A career change was my suggestion too, but that is easier said than done. Appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. 🙏🏼
