When these movements become too repetitive, the tendons become irritated, swell and the inside of the sheath becomes inflamed. The carpal tunnel can't absorb this swelling, which is why the <strong><mark style=\"color:#12ad78\" class=\"has-inline-color\">compression of the median nerve of the wrist<\/mark>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What causes this musculoskeletal disorder? Most of the time, we speak of idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome: no cause as such is detected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But more often than not, the syndrome is linked to another pathology that has<strong><mark style=\"color:#12ad78\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> herself contributed<\/mark><\/strong> to compress the median nerve: these include pregnancy, menopause, hypothyroidism, diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis and gout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/stimcareonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/STIMCARE-ARTHRO-ARTHROSE-MAINS1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-28635\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stimcareonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/STIMCARE-ARTHRO-ARTHROSE-MAINS1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/stimcareonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/STIMCARE-ARTHRO-ARTHROSE-MAINS1-300x250.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The same way, <strong><mark style=\"color:#12ad78\" class=\"has-inline-color\">certain movements or postures<\/mark><\/strong> can lead to median nerve compression, whether in the course of professional or leisure activities. These include repetitive movements involving flexion and extension, wrist twisting and the use of considerable hand strength, as well as the repeated use of the thumb index finger. Prolonged driving can also be harmful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, a number of precautions can be taken<strong><mark style=\"color:#12ad78\" class=\"has-inline-color\"> prevent this syndrome<\/mark><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For example, during repetitive tasks, it is advisable to take breaks and to<strong><mark style=\"color:#12ad78\" class=\"has-inline-color\">stretch your wrist<\/mark><\/strong>. In the same way, it's all about varying hand positions and movements, without going overboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Objects should be held with the full hand and tool handles adapted to the user's morphology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vibrating tools should be avoided, and gloves should be worn when working in the cold.
