Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Clinical Manifestations and Possible Complications
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common condition resulting from compression of the median nerve at the wrist, causing pain, paresthesia and functional limitations. The study highlights the neurological, functional, psychological and occupational complications associated with CTS, such as loss of sensation, chronic pain, stress and difficulties at work. The review emphasizes the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment to mitigate the impact on patients’ quality of life.
