Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a nerve condition causing pain, numbness, and tingling sensations in the hand and wrist. The median nerve is compressed at the wrist, leading to symptoms that worsen with prolonged activities or sleep. Treatment includes rest, splints, corticosteroid injections, or surgery.
In Poland:
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) treatment in Poland includes diagnostic tests, physiotherapy, and in severe cases, surgery. Wrist supports may be recommended for mild cases. Surgery involves releasing the carpal tunnel ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve.
Additional:
Poland's healthcare system offers universal coverage through its National Health Fund, but waiting times can vary. CTS treatment typically has a waiting time of 1-3 weeks for physiotherapy and up to 4-6 weeks for surgery.
