This doctor knows his stuff. He mentioned all the different symptoms and their duration exactly. Makes living with severe pain and weakness in my hands for so many years seem pointless. Thank you for sharing.

I have suffered from Carpal Tunnel in both of my hands for years and nothing has even come close to giving me the kind of relieve that this taping method has. Within seconds, I could feel the tingling and numbness going away and I could feel my fingers again. I work from home by doing many different types of customized projects for individuals, and my hands are a MUST have. Thank you so much for sharing this method, it has given me back the ability to do what I love.

Still answering questions after 2 years. Thanks for the dedication guys.

I appreciate when someone takes their job this serious, thank you !

Thanks so much for your awesome comment and advice ! It’s very helpful ! I will have a surgery next week. Your video giving me the confidential information ! Have a good day, good health and happiness ! 🙏🤙

This is one of the best descriptions which I am glad I watched. Also, my regular orthopedist doesn't do the endoscopic method. He opens from the top. I had a friend that showed me her scar and I said no to that. I am a plumber and didn't want all of that tissue cut hence a longer healing procedure. So like I did, you have the option to find the right orthopedist. From the time I left surgery until full healing which was within two weeks, I had zero pain when the pain medicine he injected before sewing up wore off. I was actually not thinking the next day and lifted a heavy about 10 pound soup pot to start a pot full of water and beans without even thinking about it. This was with my wrist wrapped up, I forgot and lifted that pot no problem. So don't worry or stress. They put me completely under with an anesthesiologist. Today you cannot even see the scar on my wrist. He slit perfectly in the wrist crease.

I had standard surgery about 30 years ago. Mine was so bad, it was radiating pain all the up to the shoulder. For me it fixed it for good, never had any problems after that.

Thanks so much, as a layman it's so nice to have it explained clearly plus the detailed visuals help so much tyty.

Txs so much Dr. You explained it so well, took some of my worries away since I have surgery coming up next month.

Wow, I wished my release in both hands in 1995, was with that device shown in this video, on the dummy hand. My surgeries were 10 days apart. Then I was in a tornado shortly after my second hand was done. The screen door of our home slammed hard on my one hand. Both hands were bandaged. I’m just glad both hands healed well, and I didn’t hurt my hand bad from the door. I was off work for 5 months. Went through physical therapy. Hands are great now. ❣️

This video and manner in which everything was explained really makes me feel confident that I can find relief for this syndrome. It came out of nowhere and it doesn't want to stop. First my right hand and now my left hand is becoming an issue. It's painful and it's hard to work. If I can't find a doctor that communicates like this, I'll be flying out to find you Doc!

That instrument is amazing! What a difference that must make having carpal tunnel release surgery. I've had the surgery done on both hands using the first technique you mentioned.

The way you explained it was great, very clear and reassuring. Thanks

Brilliant presentation. Thank you.

As a full time Massge therapist, the micro invasive procedure is by far the most desirable - thank you so much for this thorough comparison.

My doctor told me today I hace carpal tunnel. I was like nah. Just watched this video, this is exactly what im going through. Thank you!

Very informative video and educational for new patients.

Thank you for this Video. Very Helpful, Easy, Direct, and Informative.

I had this and doctors palmed me off with circulationproblems or repetitive strain ,finally saw a chiropractorthat diagnosed carpal tunnel,the operations i had on both wrists changed my life after years of suffering, was done under a local anaesthetic and recovery was 6weeks ,i recommend this surgery👍🤲

Great video and explanation. Hopefully this procedure is performed by most surgeons in the Baltimore area.

This looks like a promising improvement of the surgery. I hope it becomes available across the world soon.

Thanks good it felt like a doctor's visit from a good doctor :)

Spot on and clear.. thank you for your service! God bless

What an interesting video about carpal tunnel.

That is an amazing improvement over the invasive procedure I had done 10 years ago. Very encouraging since I may need to have my other had corrected now!

Very informative and well illustrated presentation, thank you!

Thank you so much for this video. Im in the UK and I have these EXACT symptons, for years. In fact ive had it so long im used to it but now i can see how easy it should be to correct. Again thank you for the very clear explanation.

Fabulous and incredibly clear. I Have CTS and will have surgery in four months. Thank you sooooooooooooo much!

That was a remarkably succinct presentation of the etiology and presentation. The micro invasive procedure looks simply amazing. My only concern that wasn’t addressed is long term outcomes with a dissected carpal tunnel ligament. Five star video. Well done.

I too had a nerve conduction study done years ago. They insisted I do the wrist surgery - I punted. Since then I was in an accident and the imaging showed damaged discs. Even prior to the accident I experienced a shrill sound that eliminated hearing for about a minute, I also experienced blurred vision and interruption to my sight, I could hear my neck bones grinding, numbness in my arms and into my hands, and sharp pains in my elbows, not to mention dropping things, lack of ability to grasp or write, I also had gut issues. I opted to do neck surgery which entailed removing discs and replacing those with cadaver bones, plates, and screws. I know it sounds horrific, however I had a wonder smart surgeon and I woke up feeling terrific. My previous problems and issues were gone! Everything has been good for a few years. I picked up something way to heavy and I felt it immediately in my neck so now I'm having all the same symptoms again. Hence Dr Chappell's recommendation to have your neck checked out is a smart idea. Get a second opinion is always intelligent. My so-called carpal tunnel symptoms were stemming from my long time neck issues, that effected so many other body parts.

This is a great doctor. I suffered for years. Had the carpal tunnel relief procedure on each wrist in the same year in 2020 8 most apart. I was told about all the procedure and the possible results. Some people dont get the results they expected. Happy to say both procedures were successful. I no longer have the constant numbness, tingling, and shooting pains up my arms. Had it done in 2020 while working from home. Was only off one day. It was the best decisio I ever made. I couldn't sleep,and inward unable to open screw top containers ir hold onto objects without dropping them. f you suspect you have it, please dont ignore it. Recovery is quick and the small incision just looks like all the other lines on my palm.

thank you for sharing In2it Medical , :D

Great video! I learned about the surgery options .

This is a great video on the combination of imaging technology and Electrodiagnosis

Absolutely loved this video. Thank you so much for this valuable information. Lots of love from an Australian 🇦🇺❤

Excellent video, very clear.

Thanks for this video. I wish I had you as a doctor. I'm dealing with nerve damage in both hands due to playing music which has gone on for roughly a year now. It's seriously had a negative impact on pretty much my overall quality of life and has basically halted my training with becoming a music teacher. On top of this, I cannot begin to explain what it's done to my mental health. And yet despite all this, my doctors are refusing to go ahead with treatment. All I get from them is "try some painkillers.". This video alone has explained to me what my options are far better than the doctor I went to just recently for help. Really, thanks a lot. I will have to fight very hard for treatment to get my life back on track and this video gives me some hope.

Thanks for explaining! Appreciate the video!

Because of COVID my GP diagnosed me with carpal tunnel syndrome without examination. I recall mine starting with an incredibly painful thumb, pins an needles and often a burning sensation in the affected hand. You're explaining it in more detail and I know how to handle it until my hospital appointment comes through. Thank you 😊

Pretty rad to see how medicine progresses. Thanks doctor.

Good information especially for dealers

Thanks for this video. Do you have any videos about preventative measures? I'm starting a career as a software engineer, and would love to see something about healthy routines to have through the day that will prevent/delay the onset of CTS

This is great video well explained like he said waiting split for my wrist helps a lot.

Very cool! Thanks guys!

Excellent content, thanks.

not me watching this after getting my nerve test today wanting to throw up from it. 😭

Well explained.

Excellent video

Thx doctor for Explained so simple and brief.

Thanks doc I really needed that information

It's hard being a gamer godda look up shit like this

very useful and detailed

I've never been diagnosed with carpal tunnel, but I started having symptoms in high school, and a friend of mine that had the same complaints was diagnosed with it. At this point, I've made all these changes to prevent any discomfort I only notice it after spending a day without my little mouse and keyboard cushions, or my paper tablet that doesn't allow me to write with as much pressure as I use on paper. I switched from crochet to knitting, and keep a wrist wrap and a self-massage video in my favorites for when I actually forget and go a bit too hard. That said, I come from a medical family. Ignoring pain and self-diagnosis is an unintended side-effect so, for your own benefit, do as I say not as I do. If you can go in to see a doctor and make sure what you think you have is what you actually have, please do. If you can work out what's wrong with you early on, incorporating preventative measures becomes second nature and you can minimize your symptoms and not exacerbate the problem. Again, I am most definitely not the best advocate for this, since I do not have an actual diagnosis, but my point is you can keep things from escalating with preventative care as I've been doing for a decade now.

Thank you for you video!

Unbelievable… thank you for this vital information… I have to have both hands done… now I will be asking for the easy route to this problem of my hands.. I can’t feel anything with my fingers. I will be asking them to explain the process b4 having the surgery ❤❤❤👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Great video

I've just started having some pain in my middle and index fingers and wrist the past week and was really worried about it being carpal tunnel since I had heard it's hard to treat, but this makes me feel a lot less scared and more confident to go to my doctor and make sure I get it dealt with.

Thanks so much, I really got a better understanding now. ¡Stay safe!

Thank you Very Much for the Video. You are a champion.

If only I could find a hand surgeon in Vegas like this.

Interesting video

Thank you for explaining this. I'm happy to know what I have now even though I dont want it.

Great video!!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am just 39 years and I started developing carpel tunnel syndrome, I have using computers all my life, both of my hands finger tips are somewhat tingling and a little bit numbed, I never knew carpel tunnel was a very common thing!

Very good

Could you do a video on Cubical Tunnel? I would really appreciate it. Thank you. Your videos explain a lot.

Good info wonder if any new updates over the last 4 years

A few years ago i was told I had tendonitis in my right wrist and then it lost range of motion for bending and for the past three days I've woken up with a lot of wrist pain and no circulation going to my hand. Im definitely going to go to the hospital but I hope I get taken seriously this time so I dont end up losing my hand.

Seriously great and helpful video

Great explanation. Thanks

What a handsome doctor

A few years ago, a friend of mine was giving me a massage and discovered the beginning of Carpal Tunnel by gently pressing on my arm. She showed me how to take care of it by pressing on the sensitive area till the pain dissipated.

Had the mini open procedure done on both hands two years ago, and the Carpel tunnel syndrome is back already. Back to wearing wrist braces at night again.

When I would pitch in baseball I would have a similar feeling to how you are describing carpel tunnel syndrome but I never felt the pain outside of it

Praise god, I hope I get the one that takes 4 days to heal… 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

thanks

Very well explained. Thank you. Watching from Germany where I will have this operation soon. We can take up to six weeks paid leave off work. That's normal...if needed. After six weeks you are paid 60,%of your wage. All this doesn't depend on the work you have. Anyone is entitled to.I lived in the US for two years and will never understand the system of hurrying back to work after you are sick.or had surgery. Even with a flue we stay home for a week. I hope one day your healthcare system gets fixed for everyone in the US.

Great video wish I could use you I’m in south Jersey

Carpal tunnel symptoms can mimic thoracic outlet also which can be caused from positioning of arms while sleeping. Many people assume they have carpal tunnel w/o looking further to remedy it or get a wrong diagnosis based on patients symptoms

Oh. You will know!

wow, very good video !

He points out all these abstract looking shapes on the ultrasound machine and knows exactly what every muscle, tendon, and artery is called. It would take me quite a while to make out anything from that view.

super helpful video thanks. At around 25-26 years of age I started getting this far to much gaming... questionable life choices...

Great video! In germany you can easily take 4 weeks of work if it is nescessary.

I’ve been diagnosed w carpal tunnel 24years ago and was told to have surgery then and I couldn’t afford it nor could lose time off I use to sand,install, and refinish hardwood flooring having to use heavy vibrating machinery not to mention every aspect of it is using hand and arms relentlessly. I also was a golfer played all through high school and college but my golfing days were gone long ago because the pain was debilitating even now at thanksgiving having to cut up several vegetables will have me in terrible night pain and will take half a day for numbness to be tolerable gone are the days of shaking the numbness out. I wake up in searing pain all the way up to my shoulders it can be so severe I’ll be in tears and so I’ve lost so many things I’ve enjoyed and when I try them again I pay dearly. I still have no funds and zero insurance I have the time to take off even though I see how much better the surgery recovery is now even typing this message I’m having to stop and straighten my arms to get some of the numbness to subside. Please hear me when I say when a doctor tells you that you must have surgery PLEASE do it right then because there is nothing but pain, misery, and loss to come. This was a great video it puts my mind at ease and using ultrasound instead of that painful test is amazing because that test when I had it all that time ago was no fun and agitated my symptoms at the time.

im slow. your explanations went over me head.

had both my hands done under local anaesthetic ( watched the whole op was fascinating)15 yrs ago i had loss of feeling and badly scalded my hand .......... was back driving next day

welp i guess i have it because exactly what u explained its going on with my left hand for 3 -4 days

Watching this cause I been getting this all week and today I got it on both hands and all day I couldn’t let it go away so my right hand has been numb all day🤦‍♀️

NICE!

The burning 🔥 sends me over 😢

Amazing

I had carpal tunnel in both hands, had the right hand operated on wish I hadn’t it’s worse now than it ever was, definitely not having the left one.

My symptoms were so common and /or elementary the doctor just performed the surgery. Instant relief...had the other hand done 2 years later. A no brainer, get it. It takes like 15 mins.

Now you can hydrodissect using saline and a small bore needle under ultrasound guidance in some cases.

Go to a surgeon that specializes in Carpal Tunnel. If the doctor has a lakehouse payment coming due, you have Carpal Tunnel.

I had this surgery last year's ago in 2010 in May 9th 2010 and I was at the surgery on that day and was awake ⏰and I had local had a shots to numb it up really well and he did the surgery on it. Took it about 15mins minutes and he was done fixing it. No more pain that years ago when I had it done, but Dakota was scared and bitten me all over my arms and thighs on me to be a little bit more comfortable with him after he was fixed so he won't attacked me unless he was very mad at me for a threatening situation that is a little different from what we have been in the past few years since then.

I have arthritis at the base of my right thumb and signs of carpal tunnel on the on the same hand. I'm waking out of my sleep from numb pain in my fingers, and 5 by e more I try to shake my hand to wake up the more it hurts. Writing and doing my makeup I constantly have to stop and shake my hand of being numb. Waiting to get the EMG done this week

I had an EMG performed 5 years ago, showing some carpal tunnel and Orbital tunnel issues. For the past 5 years my pinky and half of ring finger have been numb non-stop and now below those two fingers my hand is exhibiting numbness. I've noticed the muscle between my index and thumb has atrophied considerably this past year and I've lost quite a lot of pinching strength(thumb and index). I'm seeing a doctor in 2 weeks to discuss options, possibly another EMG....but after watching your video maybe that's not the correct line of defense. Thanks for your informative video.

I sure wish you would fix my corpal tunnel issue. It hurts worse than anything I've ever had. And I had cubital pinched nerve in my left arm two years ago. Now it's my right hand hurting all the way to my neck.
