Carpel Tunnel Syndrome

Questions
 
True
False
1

When diagnosing carpel tunnel syndrome, once your doctor has made a diagnosis, an added diagnostic tool is to get a nerve conduction study done.

Explanation:

When you start developing symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome, and your diagnosis has been confirmed by your family physician, sometimes an added diagnosis is getting something called a nerve conduction study, where you’re sent to a neurologist to test the level of slowing of that nerve.

2

A nerve conduction test helps diagnose the amount of compression the nerve has, which is directly related to the amount of pain a person is feeling.

Explanation:

A conduction test will often come back positive, and it will give you some idea of the degree of compression; not that that’s related, necessarily, to your symptoms, but it does help confirm the diagnosis.

3

When first diagnosed, many physicians will recommend wearing a brace on the wrist at night in order to hold the wrist straight.

Explanation:

Early in the disease, in the entity, when you start having numbness in your hands, most physicians will recommend bracing at nighttime. It will keep your wrist in a straighter position.

4

Moving the joints in extreme flexion is not advised while doing daily activities, sports or hobbies.

Explanation:

They may ask you to avoid positions of extreme extension or flexion of your wrist joint during the daytime at work, or at hobbies or sports that you do.

5

Using anti-inflammatories or cortisone injections is of little help to carpel tunnel.

Explanation:

Your physician may put you on some anti-inflammatories to settle some of your symptoms, and some doctors will actually inject cortisone into your carpal canal that may help you temporarily.

6

Typically, carpel tunnel is a short term problem and symptoms will resolve on their own.

Explanation:

The problem is, by and large, a progressive problem. So you may have mild symptoms for one day, and worse another, and month-to-month it may change. But the natural course of this is over years it will usually get worse.

    Dr. Samuels went the extra mile for me concerning total hip replacement. He was concerned about little muscle mass and insisted that I was given the dual mobility replacement hip to help prevent dislocation. I am in my fourth month post surgery and everything is going very well. Very highly recommend his surgical expertise.

    Action Plan
    Dr. Lewis Samuels is a wonderful surgeon and friend. I have had surgery done by Dr. Samuels on a previous occasion. He explains what the procedure is all about, what he is going to do, what I can expect following surgery. He is very thorough. His bedside manner is second to none. His staff and assistants are well liked by the Doctor, that was quite obvious, and listening to the comments, the staff really like him. My recent surgery was a total knee replacement. I will admit that I was a little uneasy about a full knee replacement and was a bit worried when the time had arrived. Just prior to going under the spinal procedure, Dr Samuels came into the theatre and asked how I was .. my immediate response was "just fine, now that you are here". And on a lighter side, just before going under, the OR nurse held a pillow against me and had me wrap my arms around the pillow. I jokingly said to her "Is it too late to change my mind". She held me firmly and said "We have it from here Wilbur". The surgery was a total success. I am in my third week post now and doing well. Thank you again Dr. Samuels as a Doctor and a friend.
