OVERVIEW

ABOUT CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME

A little numbness in the fingers when you wake, a hand that goes dead while you're holding a book or gripping the wheel. You shake it out, it fades, you move on. But carpal tunnel rarely stays that mild. It comes from the median nerve getting pinched as it passes through a narrow tunnel in your wrist, and that nerve runs feeling to your thumb and most of your fingers. Squeeze it long enough and the tingling turns into numbness, then weakness, then dropping things and fumbling with buttons. Here's the part that matters most. The early stage, the one that's easy to ignore, is exactly the stage that responds best without surgery. The longer it goes, the harder it is to walk back. Our team figures out what's crowding the nerve and works to take the pressure off, usually with conservative care.

Carpal tunnel usually takes more than one visit to settle. At our Peoria clinic, care runs across several weeks, so the nerve calms at a pace that holds.

The front office staff, especially Cheri is wonderful to work with and happy to help with your needs. The therapists there have a great team and attitude. They definitely want to see you succeed. Ian has a great bedside manner but really they all do. I would recommend them anytime.

Fantastic results for chronic sciatica after just 3 weeks. Everyone is kind, helpful and meets you where you are at. I’m so grateful to have found Modern PT.

Modern Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine exceeded my expectations. Being able to get the diagnosis through ultrasound on the first visit is so much more efficient in diagnosing and determining the treatment plan. It was amazing to be able to see the collaboration between Dr. Davies, PT Tim Moxie and Ryan with ultrasound. They are all very caring and I am currently receiving outstanding PT through Tim for shoulder pain. They offer additional treatment options as well. The office staff is flexible. I am recommending this office to friends and family.

What Are You Experiencing?

Pain is hard to put into words. You might not have a good sense of what kind of care you need, and that’s OK. What matters is how things are right now. Please fill out this short form to summarize how things are. We will then follow up and take you through what may be causing the pain, as well as what may work as a solution.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If the pain is severe such that you are unable to deal, don’t wait. Call 911 or go straight to a hospital. Safety is essential, no matter what. That initial action, after which we are able to lend a hand in helping you find longer-term relief.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

Sometimes, pain will keep you from being brought to your knees, but it does disrupt your ability to function in daily life. Perhaps it’s intermittent and stabbing, or maybe it’s just present during the day. Let’s get those details from you, and we’ll do our best to determine what’s causing it.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Little aches hurt just as badly. A sore shoulder, stiff knees, or a throbbing ache that shows itself every once in a while can still have its toll. Let us know how you’ve been doing, and we’ll take care of it for you before it grows into something bigger.

Answering Your Questions

Why does it wake me up at night?
A lot of people sleep with their wrists bent, which crowds the tunnel and presses on the nerve for hours at a stretch. That's why waking up with a numb, tingling hand is one of the earliest signs. A simple night splint that holds the wrist straight often helps right away, and it's usually one of the first things we try at Modern Medicine of Peoria, AZ.
Can it really clear up without surgery?
Often, yes, especially when it's caught early. Splinting, activity tweaks, nerve glides, and easing the tightness around the wrist relieve a lot of early and moderate cases. Surgery mainly enters the picture for advanced ones with constant numbness or muscle weakness that conservative care hasn't turned around.
Is my desk job causing it?
Desk work can play a part, but it's rarely the whole story. Any repeated hand and wrist use, awkward wrist angles, or swelling in the area can crowd the nerve. We look at your specific daily activities and positions to find what's actually aggravating it.
What tells me it's getting worse?
The signs to watch are numbness that's there all the time instead of now and then, weakness in the hand, dropping things, or struggling with fine tasks like buttons and zippers. Those point to the nerve being more affected, and they're a reason to get seen sooner.
Do I have to give up whatever's causing it?
Usually not give up, just adjust. Small changes to how you hold your wrist, how often you take a break, or how your workspace is set up can take real pressure off the nerve without dropping the activity altogether.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Josh Adams

MODERN MEDICINE
CEO

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams
