Carpal tunnel syndrome is a frequently encountered condition where the median nerve gets compressed in the wrist, causing numbness, tingling and occasionally weakness of the affected hand. This condition is very common in occupations that require a lot of grasping, pinching or squeezing, especially if using vibrating tools.
