I believe I have this
because of the work I did for 20 years and my site building. It is not caused
by the military.
Carpal Tunnel
Carpal tunnel is the area under a ligament (a tough,
elastic band of tissue that connects bones and organs in place) in front of the
wrist. The median nerve, which passes through the carpal tunnel, supplies the
thumb side of the hand. Repetitive movements of the hand and wrist can cause
inflammation of structures (such as tendons and their coverings) that surround the
median nerve. The inflammation may compress this nerve, producing numbness,
tingling, and pain in the first three fingers and the thumb side of the hand-a
condition known as carpal tunnel syndrome.
