The holiday season is here—a time for decorating, gift-wrapping, cooking, and celebrating with loved ones. But for those living with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), these festive activities can become challenging, even painful. At Hand Surgery Specialists of Texas, we understand the impact CTS can have on your daily life, especially during a busy season like December. That’s why we’re proud to offer an innovative, minimally invasive treatment to help you get back to enjoying the holidays pain-free.
What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, and Why Does It Worsen During the Holidays?
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve, which runs through the wrist, becomes compressed due to inflammation or repetitive motion. Common symptoms include:
- Tingling or numbness in the fingers.
- Pain in the hand or wrist, especially at night.
- Weakness when gripping objects.
The holidays are filled with activities that can aggravate CTS symptoms:
- Wrapping Gifts: Holding scissors, tying ribbons, and repetitive cutting motions can strain the wrist.
- Holiday Cooking and Baking: Kneading dough or chopping ingredients can worsen pain and stiffness.
- Decorating: Hanging ornaments or stringing lights involves wrist flexion and repetitive hand movements.
- Writing Cards or Typing Emails: Extended time spent writing or typing can increase numbness and tingling.
If these activities leave your hands and wrists aching, it’s time to explore a long-lasting solution.
