Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Treatment in Lahore
Our hands contain different types of nerves. They act as communication cables, helping us to feel, move, and protect our hands. If any of the nerves become damaged or compressed, it affects the sensation or movement of our hands. Carpel Tunnel Syndrome occurs when one of the nerves in the hand becomes compressed. In scientific terms, this nerve is called the median nerve. This nerve controls the movement and sensation of our thumb, index, middle, and part of the ring finger.
Compression or damage to the median nerve in the hand causes numbness or tingling and a weak grip of the hand. Carpel Tunnel Syndrome affects approximately 3% of people worldwide and causes problems with hand movement. This condition can be treated safely and effectively by Dr. Waqas Javed, an experienced orthopedic specialist in Lahore. At Bones Cure, both non-surgical and advanced surgical treatment options are available to reduce pain, relieve discomfort, and restore normal hand function.
Different Types of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpel Tunnel Syndrome is classified based on the severity of symptoms, duration, and the root cause behind it. Here, we will describe every type and the symptoms associated with it for your understanding and ease.
1. Based on Stage or Severity
Mild Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
You feel less severe symptoms because the nerve compression is mild. Common symptoms you feel include: intermittent tingling, numbness in the hand during activities, and discomfort during sleep. You might feel relief if you shake your hand after tingling or numbness.
Moderate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
It involves increased nerve pressure and trouble during hand movement. Major symptoms involve the inability to hold things for long, reduced strength of the hand, continuing pain, and difficulty in fine movements.
Severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
It occurs when there is advanced nerve damage. Symptoms of Severe Carpal Tunnel Syndrome include wasting of muscle at the thumb base, loss of hand coordination, and weakness of the hand that continues all the time.
2. Based on Duration
Acute Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
It involves increased pressure of the median nerve that is abrupt in nature. It might occur due to an injury, fracture, or swelling of the hand. Due to sudden pressure on the nerve, the pain in the wrist is severe, and the numbness is extreme. Your hand might swell rapidly, and you need immediate medical attention.
Chronic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
In this type of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, your symptoms develop slowly and gradually. Office workers, drivers, barbers, beauticians, housewives, and people who use their hands frequently during their work may be at risk of Chronic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. There is repetitive use of the hand, and the pressure caused is long-term. Major symptoms include numbness or tingling of the hand, pain at night, a weak grip, and frequent dropping of objects.
3. Based on the Underlying Cause
Idiopathic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
It is the most common form of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. It develops without a single identifiable cause or injury. Different factors could be responsible for causing Idiopathic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, such as genetics, obesity, thyroid, etc. An expert orthopedic specialist can diagnose it properly.
Post-traumatic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
It occurs after a trauma or injury. It can also be caused by a fracture or severe strain of the hand. It can be acute or delayed based on the cause behind it, but it can be more painful and disturbing.
Secondary/ Contextual Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
You can have some medical conditions (diabetes, pregnancy, arthritis, thyroid issues, etc.) that can cause carpal tunnel syndrome. In such cases, the symptoms include swelling and pain in the hand, and it may cause your primary medical condition to worsen.
No matter the type of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Dr. Waqas Javed provides accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plans at Bones Cure. With advanced non-surgical and surgical options, he focuses on relieving pain, restoring hand strength, and helping you return to your normal routine comfortably and confidently.

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Recovery – Fast, Safe & Guided Every Step of the Way
If a specialist like Dr. Waqas is treating your Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, you can expect an easy recovery process. Whether medications or a surgery, your median nerve can be managed based on its severity and symptoms. Here is a breakdown of recovery time for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome based on the treatments offered at Bones Cure.
Physiotherapy
specific exercises advised by a physiotherapist or an orthopedic specialist can help to ease the symptoms of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. You will start seeing the results of physiotherapy in 4 weeks, and you can easily recover in two months.
Medications/Injections
If you are advised to use medications or injections, you get immediate pain relief, and the nerve will be decompressed within a few days or a week. This treatment option is usually preferred when the symptoms are mild to moderate.
Rest & Wrist Splint
A splint is a medical device advised by an orthopedic specialist that is used to provide stabilization. Your Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can recover between two and six weeks if you are advised to rest and use a wrist splint. During this time, you will not use your hand for regular activities like driving, lifting heavy objects, using scissors, etc.
Open Carpal Tunnel Surgery
When the nerve damage is severe and needs an open surgery, Dr Waqas Javed uses advanced equipment to heal the damaged nerve. The procedure will be performed using local anesthesia, so that you don't feel any pain during the surgery. After surgery, care will be advised, and you need 6 to 12 weeks in order to recover completely.
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Modern science and technology have allowed orthopedic specialists to perform keyhole surgery to cure Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. If your condition can not be managed by medications or injections, then you might need a small surgery. During the procedure, Dr. Waqas will make a small incision and decompress the nerve using special techniques. The recovery period will be one or two weeks, and you will be pain-free after that.
Severe/Long-standing cases
In some rare cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, the nerve is severely damaged to the point that recovery is almost impossible. It may be due to extreme overuse of the hands and ignoring the hand pain. This will lead to slow and progressive damage to the median nerve. In such situations, a specialist uses a gentle approach to treat the condition. The recovery may take 3 to six months, but the healing will surely occur.

Eligibility for surgery depends on different factors. Usually, the initial treatment is based on the use of hand splints, medications, injections, or physiotherapy. Surgery might be right for you if you have any of the following:

If you rest and use a splint, the mild form of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can go on its own. But if the nerve damage is severe, then you need to consult an orthopedic specialist.
Does pregnancy increase the risk?
Yes, pregnancy can increase the risk of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Hormonal changes during pregnancy can increase the pressure on your median nerve. However, in most cases, the symptoms go away after pregnancy.

Initial healing takes 6–12 weeks. Full recovery results appear in several months.
