For Canterbury patients
request for repeat carpal tunnel injection
NHS No 4460672340 I was wondering if I can have a repeat injection as my left hand is now giving me a lot of discomfort and waking me up at night time, I have done the self assessment test result and the results 81% and severity score is 3.1. I last had an injection on 13/5/2011 at Charing surgery,
can barely use my hands but the electrical tests gave normal reading
Hi, I've been suffering since Feb 2011 and had the tests in July 2011 - gave readings of level 2 CTS, even though I was constantly numb and in pain. I had steroid injections in both hands which relieved it for a short while, I would say about a month. I hadn't gone the normal CTS route, as the GP had thought it was arthritis. After having the injections the consultant simply said that if the pain came back (I had told him it never really went away) go back to my GP and start again.
feedback after 6 months
Goodevening Dott. Bland,
I am Valentina Viscardi and 6 months ago I had the injection done. After 1 month I was not completely through the problem but at the time I had not the initial sintoms.
Currently I am still having some difficulties: my wrists are not flexible (sometimes are like made of wood), after some efforts they are tight and doing some moviment a slightely painfull, many times in the morning I had numbness doing some actions.
Waiting for your feed back
thanks and regards
Hand brace
Been wearing hand brace for last few weeks have had no pain or tingling so would it be best if I keep wearing it
Arm pain
HI there
I have had surgery recently for CTS on my right hand and I am on the waiting list for the left hand. It was complete success considering I have a prolapsed disc in my neck (C6-C7) we were unsure how surgery would go but it was fantastic.
Forgot to add
Tingly feeling confined to bottom half of hand, not fingers.

Wrist splints
Hi I had a consultation and having injections at the end of the month.
I was being referred for wrist splints as the ones you had didn't go round my forearm sufficiently and I've not heard anything since so I currently do not have any supports. Can you advise please
