Carpal tunnel syndrome is one of the most common nerve entrapment disorders causing considerable discomfort and activity limitations. Appropriate medical & surgical treatment from an expert carpal tunnel syndrome doctor can interrupt the further progression of the syndrome and also avoid permanent disability.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is an anatomic passageway bounded laterally and dorsally by the carpal bones and on the palmar surface by the transverse carpal ligament. The median nerve as well as nine digital flexor tendons pass through this tunnel.
CTS results from compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel, beneath the traverse ligament. The tissue pressure in the carpal tunnel is much higher in patients with CTS than in normal people, and the pressures are raised by wrist extension, flexions, and finger flexion. The median nerve becomes entrapped essentially resulting in a syndrome. It is due to nerve ischemia with a lack of blood to the nerve.
Neil Toft provides you effective carpal tunnel syndrome treatment that helps you achieve a solution to this chronic hand condition for life. A carpal tunnel syndrome surgery or a procedure called carpal tunnel release is perhaps recommended to treat severe or ongoing syndrome when it is not responding to conservative therapies such as pain-relieving medications, elevating, splinting, steroid injections, etc.

In almost all cases, carpal tunnel syndrome surgery involves making small incisions to the transverse carpal ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve. Usually, surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome can be performed as an open surgery (involving a large & scalpel incision) or minimally invasive carpal tunnel surgery which is done using a narrow scope & operating equipment and makes a single small incision. Mr. Toft prefers open surgery as the results are better and safer.
Depending on the severity of the symptoms and complexity of the surgery and patient/surgeon preference, the carpal tunnel syndrome or release surgery may be performed under local anesthesia, or under general anesthesia.
Neil Toft is highly skilled and well-experienced in both open as well as carpal tunnel surgeries.
If it is time to schedule carpal tunnel syndrome or release surgery, you will be more likely to have excellent results if you work with a well-qualified hand surgeon, plastic surgeon, or neurosurgeon.
