Hatboro, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/27/2016 -- Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common ailment endured by over 3 million people per year in the United States. Also called median nerve compression, this condition is diagnosed when individuals notice numbness, tingling or pain in their hand or arm. These symptoms occur due to a pinched nerve in the wrist. There are many causes for carpal tunnel syndrome including repeated hand and wrist activity, bone injuries and illnesses that affect blood flow to the hand such as diabetes and arthritis. With so many Americans suffering from this condition, PerformTex™ has released a kinesiology taping method that can assist with hand and wrist discomfort.
