Carpal Tunnel That Does Not Improve With PT or Surgery

You try the splints. You do the physical therapy. Maybe even the injections or surgery. But your hand still goes numb. Your wrist still aches. You still drop things.If that is you, you are not alone. We see patients every month in Charlotte who were told their carpal tunnel was “fixed” but still live with pain and weakness.

Why Traditional Carpal Tunnel Care Often Falls Short

Carpal tunnel syndrome is usually blamed on pressure inside the wrist. That is why splints, therapy, and surgery all focus on the wrist joint.But here is the problem. The median nerve, the one most responsible for carpal tunnel symptoms, runs from your neck through your shoulder, arm, and into your wrist. Adhesion anywhere along that path can trap the nerve and mimic or worsen carpal tunnel pain.If your nerve is glued down higher up the chain, no amount of wrist surgery or wrist therapy will solve it.

A Real Story: When Years of Pain Finally Improved

One of our patients is a veterinary surgeon. Her hands and arms are his livelihood. Years of surgery left her with carpal tunnel and tennis elbow that never improved, even after physical therapy.When she came to us, we found adhesion locking down his nerves and muscles. Once we started treating those adhesions directly, she finally had lasting relief and was able to keep working without constant pain.That is the kind of case where Adhesion Release Methods make the difference.

The ARM Approach: Finding the Glue Others Miss

At Resolve STS we take a step back and look at the whole nerve path. We test your movement from neck to hand. We use our hands to palpate and feel where the nerve is glued down.Then we work layer by layer to free the nerve so blood flow returns and pain reduces.This is not a quick fix. But for patients who have already tried the usual options with little to no relief, it can be the missing answer.

What to Do If You Still Have Carpal Tunnel Pain

If your wrist still hurts after therapy or even after surgery, it does not mean you are out of options. It often means the real problem was never found in the first place.Our clinic in Charlotte works with patients who have already tried multiple providers and still have pain. If that is you, there is still hope. Book a consultation with Zac here so we can learn your story and help you get the permanent pain relief you deserve.
