title: Carpal tunnel syndrome.
abstract: Carpal tunnel syndrome is a common work-related injury that has become a major cause of disability. The causes are varied, and prevention is the goal in the workplace. For established cases of CTS, conservative measures such as splinting and medication are the primary treatment with surgery an option when conservative treatment fails.
