VerifiedCommon questions
How long is recovery after carpal tunnel release?
Light hand use often returns within days, and many people resume most activities in two to six weeks. Full grip strength and palm comfort can take a few months.
What is the difference between open and endoscopic release?
Both cut the same ligament; the endoscopic method uses a smaller incision and a camera, while the open method uses a small palm incision. Early recovery may differ slightly, and your surgeon will advise which is suitable.
Does carpal tunnel syndrome always need surgery?
No. Mild cases often improve with night splinting, activity changes, and sometimes a steroid injection. Surgery is typically considered when symptoms persist, worsen, or involve constant numbness or weakness.
