Details.
A quick, in-office procedure that delivers corticosteroid medication and a local anesthetic directly into the carpal tunnel to reduce inflammation, ease pressure on the median nerve, and relieve wrist and hand pain, tingling, and numbness. Typically suited for patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome who have not found long-term relief from wrist braces or medication. Post-procedure care may include resting the hand for the rest of the day. Some swelling or soreness is normal and usually resolves within 24 to 48 hours.
