Carpal Tunnel or Neck Problem? The Truth About Wrist Pain


Listen Later

In this episode of The Spinal Truth, Dr. Caleb Slater and Chris break down the myths and realities of carpal tunnel syndrome. While most people are told their wrist pain comes from typing or overuse, Dr. Slater explains why true carpal tunnel is actually rare and why symptoms like tingling, burning, or numbness in the hands are often misdiagnosed nerve issues starting in the neck. They discuss how splints, injections, and even surgery frequently fail to provide lasting relief, why so many patients are left frustrated after months of treatment, and how simple neck-focused exercises can dramatically change outcomes. If you've been struggling with wrist pain, considering surgery, or just want clarity on what's really going on, this episode offers a fresh perspective and practical solutions.
