woke up with this constant pain around my thumb, wrist, index and middle finger, moved up to my arm, i had no clue what it was, tried soaking my hands in cold water, do a few streches of my own, a pain killer, but nothing worked. Then i stumbled on your video, did YOUR streches, and i feel alot better. Definatly deserve a like, u saved me from going outside and meet a doctor and waste time!
You guys are life savers. Both my hands just started flaring up at night and I wake up with them numb. I was searching for good braces and stretches. Thank you!
Ok, you two..my husband and I were doing different stretches while you were speaking. We were not watching, just listening, and you would repeat what I would say!! You two are blessings from the Lord God! Your great! Thank you!
thank you for explaining and having exercises we can do for carpal tunnel syndrome. My Dr just dispenses pills and sends me to see other costly specialists. When I asked about exercises I could do?....he said there was nothing I could do...Sometimes I think Drs are trained to dispense medication only. So thank you for being there and sharing all that good info with us! Keep up the terrific work. By the way, Thank you for the little magnetic hearts. Was planning to share them but corvid-19 got in the way.
I've been suffering from carpal tunnel for years, just bought a splint and I feel stupid for not wearing one for so long. Feels amazing to wear at night.
@Joseph Shatrowsky - It's been a year, how has the brace been now?? I have it bilateral and I wonder if it's worth buying it or not. They say it gets smelly and itchy.
@@angiedelap6831 I wear one and it’s super helpful!! 100% recommend it! As for itching and smelling, I wear a thin little hand sleeve/glove under it. I made mine out of a sock I cut finger holes in haha, but you can definitely buy them online!
Now that most of us are working at home and adjusting to our own home office design, I can refer to your videos to ease my CTS and other desk stretching exercises. I’m glad I found your channel!
I’ve watched you guys many times. All your advice and guidance is fantastic. As a hairstylist I would love for you to do a video that targets all the issues stylists get. Like upper back pain or neck, shoulder issues, carpal tunnel etc. thanks in advance.
Good video. I once thought I had a really bad case of carpal tunnel syndrome but I really just had a super tight chest/pec minor. I mean my hands really really hurt for months. But stretching out the chest really took away all the pain. It really works.
There are a few factors in treating carpal tunnel syndrome naturally. One plan I found that successfully combines these is the Dariks pain destroyer (check it out on google) without a doubt the most useful resource that I have ever heard of. Check out the amazing information .
The arm stretch palm up works great. I'm a bicycle rider and that helps. I've used it while riding and it takes away the numbness while riding. It will also help from getting a problem while riding done before riding. If you do another carpal tunnel video put these thoughts on bicycling help.
There are a few ideas for relieving carpal tunnel syndrome pain quickly Do stretches - the pain is casued by tension in the nerve get the advice of experts or long term effects can occur (I read these and why they work on Dariks pain destroyer website )
hey ,if anyone else is searching for best home treatment for carpal tunnel try Tarbally Simple Tunnel Tactics (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some awesome things about it and my buddy got great results with it.
I was waking up several times a night because my hand was going numb and it really hurt. I've already had surgery on my neck twice and I did not want to go through that again so I was pretty much ignoring it. I went on a road trip with my son and I noticed him putting on wrist braces at night. He told me it was for carpal tunnel and when I described what I was going through he said that sounded exactly like what he was going through so the past 6 months I've been sleeping in wrist braces and I can't believe how much it helps. Even if I have carpal tunnel, I really don't want to have surgery, so I'm doing everything I can to put it off. I think I'll try the day band, too!
Thanks Bob and Brad my carpel tunnel syndrome has gone within one week. I had suffered it for 6 weeks before doing these exercises and wearing a night brace.
Having a ‘similar’ wrist-pull problem (tendonitis-too much hand quilting 😢). Bought several cuffs right away & do your exercises to help myself heal. Thank you!!!
You guys are awesome! I seem to have found you at the right time too! You video on hip pain is really helping me after only a couple of days. I also have carpal tunnel so, perfect timing!!! Thank you so much!
Yeah gumby! Good memories. You guys are great,my son watches you and has ordered your massage guns,those things are awesome, thank you for your info. You really help us out alot,God bless you and your staff and you're in my prayers.😊😊💖💖😇😇
Thanks so much for your videos! Could you offer some advice for proper sleeping positions with carpal tunnel syndrome? I feel like I pinch my neck and other spots with how I sleep and wonder what would be suggested to help alleviate the pain?
The best part about this video, IMHO, is that when the *Corflex* brace is introduced, the text showing the full model name of the brace is misspelled "Coreflex," even though it's displayed right over the top of a box on the counter with the *Corflex* brand name on it. 😄
THANK YOU! I am miserable after caulking with a caulk gun and painting a shed... those caulk guns are NOT meant for women. So much pain and numbness, especially at night. I knew I could depend on you gents to have suggestions.
you are a bit like the cinema therapy guys! i mean that as a compliment, very charming - and ofc thank you for the exercises, i'm literally dying over here :D
Question. So when I did the hand out stretched and went up and down with my hand and stretched my neck over. My hand immediately started going numb. Why is that? Also the specialist wants to immediately do surgery for me. Offered shots in my wrist. But never mentioned any braces or stretches. Why not? Is he not a good Dr? I desperately need help please. Thank you.
I just stumbled on your channel looking for exercises/recommendations. I have a trade where I need to grip tight, which said grip is very important to do my job. Am a tattoo artist and my fingies are going numb. Where in the Midwest are you guys? (I see you also have a Minnesconsin dilemma on your display shelves). I already sleep with a brace, practice yoga and I am looking for more preventative exercises. Thank you for the recommendations:)
I always wanted to do push ups, but when I started I thought I had an extra “bone” in my right wrist! But it seems is my carpal tunnel. Is it a bad thing to do push ups when you suffer from this syndrome? I just do 45 daily. Thanks!!
I wear a wrist splint on both wrists (and hands) that has 3 straps and long flat metal plates in the palms, but I’m sure they aren’t fitting right because they aren’t working very well. I really like the second splint in this video that supports the fingers. As I’ve put in former comments on these videos, I have severe carpal tunnel syndrome in both hands, fingers, and wrists and the pain has gotten so bad very recently that I’ve contemplated going into the emergency room these past few days. I’m at the point to where I need surgery, but I’d love a good support brace until things get set up.
Isabella A Rossellini did u when to emergency room? If you!? How your hands are better? Doctor told me to have surgery to cut my carpal tunel tenden. But i have only numbnes in my 4 fingers, but nothing else after that. Please i need to know if surgery is good or not.
hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to learn about alternative treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome try Pycanta Tunnel Syndrome Protocol (should be on google have a look ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my m8 got amazing success with it.
Question I have been diagnosed with carpal tunnel and have swelling in my middle finger and index finger. Is this normal with carpal tunnel? Hand Dr wants to do surgery. I'm trying to prevent it.
I have tightness when I close my hand to make a cyst I’ve tried your exercise stretching my hand out and my arm and my neck but I still have the tightness when I go to make a fist
Tried to buy the tunnel tamer. Amazon does not carry it any longer. The manufacturer does not list it anymore. It seems unavailable anywhere. If you can help me please do. I'm a musician and a gamer and I'm having a lot of carpal tunnel problems. Thanks.
Hi guys love your video's. Got my husband watching you for his carpal tunnel and he wants me to ask if you could fix your crooked cabinet door😅 Any thing for OCD?
I've had carpal tunnel for over a week using a splint dont exercise s it painful got num and tingling in right hand mi thumb and two fingers will spilt get the feeling back and how long it take I'm 47
Can’t get my arms out level. They feel like 100 pounds each. Both affected. Pain from elbow down. Neck is involved. Crying in pain. Can’t even lift a cup to my mouth.
Hello! You can find more information on how to wear the Tunnel Tamer here: www.braceability.com/carpal-tunnel-wrist-brace - It is intended to be worn during the day, while doing or after repetitive, wrist flattening activities such as typing on a keyboard, driving, texting, cycling, etc. It can be worn safely all day. If you experience pain or discomfort during extended wear, adjust the tension or remove the finger loops and allow time for your hand to rest before reapplying.
Where could i get on3 of those green straps. Been watching your videos... i am in so much pain its not even funny. My docto4 recommended aleave pills... i hate pills. Would rather do stretches and exercices
At first i started with both of legs going numbs, but doctor suspected that it might be my kidney since i tried commit suicide by overdose on medcine. Recently both of my hands does go numbs and i do think its due to my neck because i had a bad habit of cracking my neck, however my differences is that at the tip of my pointing fingers (i do literally mean on my both pointing finger) turned yellow and each movements i make using that particular finger will makes my nails turn white (as if being compressed) regardless in supine or suplex postion. Ive went to the physician and they sent me to do ct scan at my neck, and they said result are normal nothing is wrong with me. But my problem still persist till this day and i dont know where else to turn now i even went as far as to acupunture, body cupping, even to shaman healer none of it work. What do you think on this..?
Is there any brace that can help keeping thumb in upright position and which can help making cupping/ gripping things ? Because , one of my clients has a really bad CTS , which has caused atrophy of thenar muscles, and now his thumb usually stays in adduction position with the index finger, difficult to do opposition and gripping objects ? Thanks
Hello! I think one of these braces might be able to help: www.braceability.com/hard-thumb-splint www.braceability.com/gamekeepers-thumb-splint-treatment-mcp-joint www.braceability.com/bort-stellafix-de-quervains-tenosynovitis-brace
What's your opinion on kinesiology tape? I've seen it been used to treat carpal tunnel but the overall effects of KT seem to be poorly characterized from what I've read on pubmed.
Kim Harris I have the same thing and thought the same as your concern! Mine began during pregnancy and it is devastating not being able to interact with my 16 month old because of the numbness and excruciating pain esp after exertion....
I think the root cause of the CTS counts a lot. If you have some underlying illness/condition like diabetes and others, it can affect both hands in the same time. However, symmetric overuse of hands (e.g. typing) may affects only one of them (at first...). Not to mention traumatic causes, but that is obvious.
is it possible to reverse carpal tunnel syndrome after having it for almost two years? i am almost 20 and have not gotten any cortisone injections or surgery yet. my hands go through different periods of intense pain to mild but still somewhat always faintly there. however, the pain is usually throbbing the whole day even if i don't do anything with my hands and try to rest them, especially if i go on my phone for even a min (i got CTS from being on my phone too much), but yeah pretty much when i do anything whether it be type, write, text, open things, etc. there is pain. please respond it would be appreciated!
Avoid them. The key issue with carpal tunnel is compression on that median nerve. What do you think additional compression is going to do to that? Another key problem: half the stuff in your local drug store that claims to be for CTS is actually NOT for CTS. Much of it is made overseas and not open to US regulations regarding false claims. Ace and Copper Fit tend to be really big offenders. If a brace has what is known as a palmar spine (the metal/plastic rod that is palm side, spoon shaped, and runs the length of your wrist) then avoid it. Once again, it's adding more pressure to your median nerve. If a doctor is suggesting such a brace, stay the fuck away from it and maybe find a new doctor while you're at it. Finally, braces are intended for night use when you're sleeping. Do not try to wear one all day. It'll make simple tasks harder, lead to wrist fatigue, and once again add extra pressure/irritation to the nerve in your wrist as you're essentially trying to fight the brace to do various tasks/actions that never had a brace in mind.
You guys are great, BUT! My word you do talk a lot! I mean sometimes is sounds like nonsense! You talk for the sake of it. JUST GET TO THE BLOODY POINT WITHOUT THE 'FLUFF'...and you'll win more viewers. Don't hm and haw and AROUND THINGS. Be concise and demonstrative..as in demo!
You are so wrong! They have so many viewers because of their quirky personalities! Your doctor wants you out of there as fast as possible so he can get another person in to bill. He doesn't want to chit chat or explain anything. But Bob and Brad are giving you all of this information for free, and they're explaining it in a funny way. If you will just want the facts with no fluff, you're in the wrong place! We all love their quirky personalities!
Found you guys at 2 am. Carpal Tunnel pain was keeping me up all night. Doing exercises now. Mine is definitely in my neck. Who knew? Thanks so much!!
Hi bro, any updates so far on your carpel tunnel syndrome?
Did you ever fix the issue? I’m thinking mine is coming from the neck too
woke up with this constant pain around my thumb, wrist, index and middle finger, moved up to my arm, i had no clue what it was, tried soaking my hands in cold water, do a few streches of my own, a pain killer, but nothing worked.

How long(hours on a day) do you wear the first brace you showed and is it to be worn during the daytime or night-time?

@braceAbility Is it suitable for swimming?

Is it unusual to begin having carpal tunnel problems in both hands at about the same time? This seems odd to me.

He doesn't want to chit chat or explain anything. But Bob and Brad are giving you all of this information for free, and they're explaining it in a funny way. If you will just want the facts with no fluff, you're in the wrong place! We all love their quirky personalities!
Thank you
