Carpal Tunnel

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone…

 

Thank you Misty for the warm welcome. I am really glad to be a part

of this group… There is really good information here and if I am

able to add to that I am honored. What I thought that I might do is

pick one topic at a time and share some of the information that I

know about it… It is important that people know that there are

natural systems of healing available to them; there are alternatives

to medication and surgery… So I decided to start with Carpal Tunnel.

 

Carpal tunnel is characterized by pain or discomfort in the wrist

and unlike other injuries it can come on slowly but it can build and

build. It may start with numbness and tingling, affecting daily

chores like typing. The irritation might lead to taking pills to get

through the day… Building to the point where you finally say,

something has to be done.

 

The problem is that If you were to go to your family or company

doctor complaining about numbness, tingling, even sharp pains you'll

probably hear something along the lines of… " You probably have carpal

tunnel syndrome. Here are some pain relievers and wrist splints.

Come back if that doesn't take care of it. "

 

At this point you might want to consider a second opinion. This

method of approach should be a red flag that your doctor may not be

the person to talk to. You see, your wrist pain can have a number of

causes and some of those causes aren't even in your wrist at all!

Because many doctors don't know where these places are, they assume

that since your PAIN is in your wrist, the problem is solely in your

wrist and focus on that.

 

The main problem with the kind of treatments many doctors give for

conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome is that they never go after

the root of the problem, but focus on the symptoms, in this case;

numbness, tingling and other irritating pains. And when these

treatments wear off (which they do), you'll often find they only

cover your pain in the first place.

 

See, pain relievers like Motrin, aspirin and Tylenol will never cure

your wrist pain or Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, or anything else really!

What they do is disable a chemical in your body that tells your

brain you're in pain (cortisone shots work almost in the same way).

It's like wearing ear plugs to avoid a sound. While this may be okay

once in a while, using these pain relievers can only make your

condition worse in the long run in two ways:

 

Pain, as we all know, is your body's way of telling you, you are

hurt. And because you feel pain you stop doing things that can

worsen your injury and make you hurt more. For instance, if you

sprained your ankle and didn't know it, then you'd keep walking on

it till it fell off or something horrible happened. So, your body

tells your brain you're in pain so you know to keep off it for a

couple days.

 

If you are taking pills so you can get through the day you've

sabotaged your body's only means of keeping you healthy. Obviously,

this form of treatment is not a permanent fix because no matter how

many pills you take, you'll never get better!

 

The other reason taking these pills is dangerous has to do with the

side effects these drugs can have on your body. You see, the

chemical they disable does more than just report pain to your brain,

and depending on what pill you're taking, you can leave yourself

open to liver failure, kidney damage and even gastrointestinal

hemorrhage.

 

Trust me on this, these 'side effects' are 100 TIMES WORSE than the

wrist pain you're taking these pills for in the first place!

 

Wearing wrist splints may seem harmless enough, but you're only

supposed to wear them when you're in pain because using them as a

crutch will only lead to the formation of scar tissue in your wrist.

And that will only make your condition worse!

 

Since none of the treatments your doctor may be giving you are meant

to actually correct the true cause of your problem, logic says your

condition will only get worse. You'll be wearing your wrist splint

longer and longer, and your pills will have to get stronger and

stronger

 

OK, so you've done the pills and splints. What's next? Typically,

physical therapy.

 

The problem here is the physical therapists only follow the

directions given by your doctor. And, if your doctor hasn't figured

out what the true cause is, then the physical therapists continue

working on the wrist, which oftentimes is NOT what caused the

problem in the first place!

 

Now, surgery is a pretty extreme step. And how effective can a

surgery be if no one knows where your REAL problem is. It's like

trying to cure ankle pain by operating on your arm. Is it any wonder

why so many carpal tunnel surgeries fail to get rid of your pain?

 

And then surgery also carries other risks like anesthesia and

infection. You're also going to miss time at work, and maybe you'll

lose some mobility. And even after rehab, there's still the risk

that it will all wear off or that you may have some residual pain

your doctor will tell you to learn to deal with.

 

What most medical doctors don't consider is that in order for pain

to travel to your brain, it has to find a pathway. In essence, it

needs a road to get there just like you need to take a road to get

to your job in the morning. In your body, this road called your

nervous system. And the weird thing about nerves is if you interfere

with the Nervous system anywhere along its `road', it can make you

Feel pain in other places…like your wrist and hand!

 

So, if all this attention your doctor has given your wrist doesn't

seem to pan out, it may be because nothing is wrong with your wrist

at all! In fact, you can be a normal, healthy adult with a perfectly

normal wrist and still feel the pains commonly associated with

carpal tunnel syndrome!

 

That's right, you may be suffering from pain now in your wrist and…

YOU May Not Even Have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome!

 

I've spent years helping wrist pain AND carpal tunnel syndrome

sufferers not only discover the truth about their wrist pain, but

also getting them out of pain quickly, easily and naturally without

any drugs or surgery!

 

I got sick and tired of seeing people just like you walking around

with bandages and splints on their wrists going through a lifetime

of pain and misery because no one ever bothered to reveal to them

the truth about their condition!

 

There is really nothing more pleasing than helping people just like

you finally be pain-free and living on their own terms once again!

Because I know the chances are great that I can eliminate or, at

least, greatly reduce your wrist pain, weakness, tingling or

numbness!

 

If you're suffering from constant, bothersome wrist pain or maybe

you just started a slight numbness and tingling that you don't want

to get worse, then there is hope for you to get rid of your pain

once and for all! You can email me here- or call me at 332-1006 so

we can discuss your pain and discomfort.

them how to best look after themselves
