The numbness or tingling associated with Carpal Tunnel often occurs when one of the nerves to the hand is compromised in some way. This slows or even stops the nerve signals to and from the hand.

ELBOW/ARM PAIN

Elbow pain, in its most common form,  is often referred to as either "tennis elbow" or "golfer's elbow". These types of elbow pain are usually a result of tendonitis, bursitis, or irritated nerves. 

HAND NUMBNESS

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is the most common initial diagnosis for numb or tingling hands. There are many other factors contributing to hand numbness including poor work ergonomics.  

HEADACHES
