Carpal Tunnel

Does anyone know how to make this easier? I'm having symptoms of it which is scary for me considering my mom also had it in pregnancy to the point where she had 6 months off work before her maternity leave and she still has it (even after multiple surgeries) 25 years later.

I thought about texting the midwife - is there something I can do to lessen the constant tingling sensation?

Not sure there's much that can be done about lessening the tingling sensation. I'm currently suffering with it now and it's horrible! I got an emergency physio appointment and they recommended sleeping with wrist splints to stop the pain of it, and to do a few exercises to stretch the muscles around it when the tingling gets really bad. It makes it more manageable!

My auntie just had the operation for this, but she was also offered steroid injections every few months rather than the operation. There is also a splint you put in the freezer which helped!
