hi kinjalkji, here is a defintion of a syndrome what that is and how that happens: before u know the term carpal tunnel syndrome u certainly need to know what nervus medianus and canalis carpi area esp. the area innervated by medianus nerve. i have written the terms in latin so u can just convert it in english.if u r a medical student then u certainly know medianus nerve lies in carpal tunnel.when this nerve is stretched or squeezed due to some mechanical compression, then the result is followed by a syndrome called carpal tunnel syndrome where the sensibility in palm area and from 1st to third fingers(first is always a thumb)are affected.this kind of defect of sensibility of the area whose sebsibility is provided by medianus nerve is called carpal tunnel syndrome.in serious cases , it can lead to atrophy of affected muscles. canalis carpi/carpan tunnel: it lies between retinaculum flexorum and sulcus carpi(built from root bones of hand/carpals). this canal is U-shaped. i hope my explantion has helped to some extent! ASTU!!!

hey razzstone, it's not a diesease but of course in general any "deviation" from a normal life is called disease or illness.but this syndrome is cause due to excessive wrong use of tendons of fingers along with the wrist .it happens due to several causes like excessive pressure on wrist, extension of hand for long period of time, sleep on hand with abnormal position of hand (for long time) etc.it often beginns with numbness n tingling of hand and eventually to loss of sensibility after a certain period of time. in brief it is caused due to mechanical compression of median nerve and can be cured by proper physiotherapy and medicine(OP in need).but as usual no therapy is 100% effective. prevention is better than cure. ASTU!!!
