For no apparant reason I appear to have become a ‘veteran’!
Sorry… but not old enough yet!!!
Got me thinking about the top posters… ‘Carpal-Tunnel’???
WTF is Carpal-Tunnel???
Extract from a medical forum…
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS), or median neuropathy at the wrist, is a medical condition in which the median nerve is compressed at the wrist, leading to paresthesias, numbness and muscle weakness in the hand. Night symptoms and waking up at night is a characteristic of established carpal tunnel syndrome. They can be managed effectively with night-time wrist splinting in most patients. (!!!)
The definitive treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome is carpal tunnel release surgery. This is effective at relieving symptoms and preventing further nerve damage, but established nerve dysfunction in the form of static (constant) numbness, atrophy, or weakness are usually permanent.
Most cases of CTS are idiopathic (without a specific cause). Some patients are genetically predisposed to develop the condition.
The diagnosis of CTS is often misapplied to patients who have activity-related arm pain, such as repetitive strain injury (RSI)(!!! ).
ie:… for those there, basically TOO much Wanking!!!
