      iF YOU GO TO THE DOCTOR HE OR SHE WILL GIVE YOU A BRACE TO WEAR AND THIS HELPS A LITTLE. tHE ONLY WAY YOU CAN GET RID OF THE PROBLEM REALLY IS TO OPERATE AND IT WILL TAKE WEEKS FOR IT TO GET BACK TO WHERE YOU CAN USE IT. AFTER ABOUT 6 MONTHS YOU SHOULD BE A LOT BETTER.

        Carpal Tunnel is like a water hose with water going through... The nerves and stuff are the water, the tunnel is the hose. Surgery removes the hose as it got kinked up. Brown Hand Center does the surgery by inserting a needle (no stitches) and you are back to full function in a week....! They are located here in Austin...
