Sometimes, thickening from irritated tendons or other swelling narrows the tunnel and causes the median nerve to be compressed. The carpal tunnel – a narrow, rigid passageway of ligament and bones at the base of the hand – houses the median nerve and tendons. The median nerve controls sensations to the palm side of the thumb and fingers (although not the little finger), as well as impulses to some small muscles in the hand that allow the fingers and thumb to move.
A person with carpal tunnel syndrome may wake up feeling the need to “shake out” the hand or wrist. The symptoms often first appear in one or both hands during the night, since many people sleep with flexed wrists. Some carpal tunnel sufferers say their fingers feel useless and swollen, even though little or no swelling is apparent. What are the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome?Symptoms usually start gradually, with frequent burning, tingling, or itching numbness in the palm of the hand and the fingers, especially the thumb and the index and middle fingers. Although painful sensations may indicate other conditions, carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common and widely known of the entrapment neuropathies in which the body’s peripheral nerves are compressed or traumatized.
How do we prevent carpal tunnel syndrome?Although there is no scientific evidence that indicates that playing Fox or Falco will definitely lead to injuries, there have been strong trends to indicate that the sheer demand on a Fox/Falco player’s hand does take its toll. Some people are unable to tell between hot and cold by touch. In chronic and/or untreated cases, the muscles at the base of the thumb may waste away. Decreased grip strength may make it difficult to form a fist, grasp small objects, or perform other manual tasks.
Make sure to take small breaks every 15 to 30 minutes to relax your hands and wrists. Common symptoms include tingling, burning, or loss of sensation.– Playing Smash with any character will create stress on your hands. These injuries occur with repetitive tasks, exertions, vibrations, or awkward positions. Other forms of injuryTendinitis and repetitive strain injury (RSI) are the less severe, but more common forms of injury.
