What causes carpal tunnel syndrome to build up? While there are several professional views out there about the subject, many don't offer an accurate description of how carpal tunnel syndrome actually occurs.

What is agreed upon is the fact that the flexor tendons and median nerve are running in a much smaller space than they were prior to the onset of signs. Several specialists state that it is the swelling of the involved tissues that's decreasing the area and others say that is due to a imbalance between the flexor and extensor muscles that's causing the carpal bones to shift in to the carpal tunnel, creating the carpal tunnel much smaller.

After much research, my opinion is that the swelling is a secondary effect of the nine flexor tendons and median nerve having to glide through the carpal tunnel which has diminished in dimensions as a result of muscle imbalance*.

So how exactly does the carpal tunnel decline in size? The carpal tunnel decreases in dimensions since the flexor muscles that close the hands are exercised on an everyday basis with virtually every activity we conduct, and they become stronger, faster and stronger than the extensor muscles that open the hands, thus creating the carpal bones to shift inward, collapsing the carpal tunnel and making it smaller. Friction involving the cells occurs, since the median nerve and tendons slide back and forth in the much smaller room.

What does friction in the carpal tunnel cause? Friction between flexor tendons and median nerve within the carpal tunnel causes irritation and swelling, which puts strain on the median nerve, causing carpal tunnel syndrome. This is the reason that physicians cut the carpal ligament, making more room for the flexor tendons and median nerve to maneuver around in. The friction and swelling is eliminated, if the carpal tunnel is delivered back once again to its original size, prior to the onset of symptoms and the symptoms disappear.

Continuously performing finger flexion and repetitive hand while signs are already present will eventually intensify the existing condition even more and result in possible irreversible damage of the flexor muscles, arteries and median nerve within the carpal tunnel.

Just how can the carpal tunnel syndrome be eliminated? By extending and stretching the overly restrictive flexor muscles that close the hands and strengthening and shortening the extensor muscles that open the hands, the carpal tunnel may return to its normal size, decreasing impingement of the tendons and median nerve, which also eliminates friction and triggers the carpal tunnel symptoms to disappear.

Now could be enough time to just take the measures to avoid and/or remove carpal tunnel syndrome by starting a / exercise program for the hands.
