Carpal Tunnel Surgery in Pune
Surgical treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome at Arra Aesthetics
Carpal tunnel surgery is a procedure used to relieve pressure on the median nerve in the wrist. It may help reduce symptoms such as pain, tingling, numbness and weakness in the hand.
What is Carpal Tunnel Surgery?
Carpal tunnel surgery, also called carpal tunnel release surgery, is performed to relieve pressure on the median nerve.
The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway in the wrist. It contains the median nerve, bones, tendons and ligaments.
When pressure builds around the median nerve, it can cause carpal tunnel syndrome.
Carpal tunnel surgery involves cutting the ligament that is putting pressure on the carpal tunnel. This creates more room for the median nerve and tendons.
Carpal tunnel surgery may be considered when treatments such as medication, physical therapy and wrist splints do not improve the condition.
There are two types of carpal tunnel release surgery:
- Open Release: The surgeon makes an incision on the wrist and performs the procedure using surgical instruments.
- Endoscopic Release: The surgeon uses a small camera and thin surgical instruments through small incisions to perform the procedure.
The type of surgery depends on the patient’s condition and treatment requirements.

Wrist and Hand Pain
Carpal tunnel syndrome can cause pain in the wrist and hand. Releasing the compressed nerve may help reduce these symptoms.
Hand Weakness
Long-term nerve compression can cause weakness in the hand. Patients may also find it difficult to hold objects or may drop them frequently.
