I heard that you can cause carpal tunnel syndrome by massaging their fist in a certain way

[@rexybundy]

You say you don't know what causes it but I can tell you a lot of car detailers get it and a few who uses power tools. I've spoken to a few of my detailing mates and they have the same condition, another condition we get is pain in the back of the shoulder blade.
I have also a few older mates who have carpal tunnel syndrome and they say it's the R.S.I of the power tools that causes carpal tunnel syndrome.
Maybe look into the background of the person and I bet they have used there hands alot in there lifetime.
