Advanced Treatment Options for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Pristyn Care Elantis offers both non-surgical and surgical treatments based on the severity of the condition:

Lifestyle modifications and wrist splints: Helpful in mild cases to reduce strain.
Medications: Anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroid injections for pain relief.

Recovery Time

Most patients recover within 2 to 6 weeks after carpal tunnel treatment. Non-surgical approaches usually show improvement within a few weeks, while surgical patients return to light activities within 2 weeks and resume full strength within 6 weeks. Early physiotherapy and proper care speed up recovery significantly.

What to Expect: Before, During & After Procedure

Before the procedure:

Consultation with the orthopedic surgeon.
Diagnostic tests such as blood work or imaging.
Pre-operative instructions regarding medications and lifestyle.

During the procedure:

The surgery usually takes 30 to 60 minutes.
Local or regional anesthesia is given.
The ligament compressing the nerve is carefully cut using advanced surgical or laser-assisted methods.
Small incisions ensure minimal scarring.

After the procedure:

Patients are monitored for a few hours before discharge.
A splint or bandage may be applied to the wrist.
Pain and swelling are managed with medication and ice packs.
Gradual return to normal activities is encouraged.

Recovery Timeline & Post-Treatment Care

Week 1-2: Mild swelling and stiffness. Patients can resume light hand use.
Week 3-4: Significant pain relief. Physiotherapy exercises begin.
Week 5-6: Grip strength improves and normal activities are possible.
Month 3 onwards: Full recovery with permanent relief from symptoms.

Post-treatment care tips:

Keep the wrist elevated in the first few days.
Perform prescribed hand exercises regularly.
Avoid repetitive wrist strain for a few weeks.
Maintain good posture while working on computers.
Attend scheduled follow-up appointments for monitoring.
