What is Carpal Tunnel Syndrome?

Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve becomes compressed as it passes through the wrist. This nerve controls sensation and movement in parts of the hand, so when it’s irritated, it can lead to pain and dysfunction.

Carpal tunnel is one of the most common causes of wrist pain, especially in people who perform repetitive hand movements.

What Causes Wrist Pain?

Wrist pain can come from a variety of sources, not just the wrist itself.

Common causes include:

  • Repetitive motion (typing, texting, manual labor)
  • Poor ergonomics and posture
  • Tendonitis or inflammation
  • Nerve compression (carpal tunnel)
  • Muscle imbalances in the forearm
  • Previous injuries or overuse
  • Nerve irritation originating from the neck

In many cases, wrist pain is part of a larger issue involving how your body moves and functions.

Common Symptoms of Carpal Tunnel & Wrist Pain

You may be experiencing carpal tunnel or wrist dysfunction if you notice:

  • Numbness or tingling in the hand or fingers
  • Pain in the wrist or forearm
  • Weak grip strength
  • Burning or shooting pain
  • Symptoms that worsen at night
  • Difficulty holding or gripping objects

If left untreated, these symptoms can progress and affect daily function.

Conditions We Treat

At North Atlanta Spine, we treat a wide range of wrist and nerve-related conditions:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Compression of the median nerve causing numbness, tingling, and weakness.

Wrist Tendonitis

Inflammation from repetitive use leading to pain and stiffness.

Nerve Compression Syndromes

Irritation of nerves anywhere along the arm, not just at the wrist.

Forearm Muscle Tightness

Overuse can create tension that affects wrist function.

The Neck–Wrist Connection (Root Cause Insight)

Many people are surprised to learn that wrist pain and carpal tunnel symptoms can originate from the neck and upper spine.

When the cervical spine isn’t moving properly:

  • Nerves traveling to the arm can become irritated
  • Muscles tighten and compensate
  • Symptoms can appear in the wrist and hand

This is why treating only the wrist often provides temporary relief.

At North Atlanta Spine, we evaluate the entire nerve pathway, not just the area where symptoms show up.
