Carpal Tunnel Release is a surgical procedure used to relieve pressure on the median nerve as it passes through the carpal tunnel in the wrist. It may be recommended when carpal tunnel syndrome causes persistent numbness, tingling, pain, weakness, or reduced hand function despite appropriate non-surgical treatment. During surgery, the transverse carpal ligament is divided to enlarge the tunnel and reduce pressure on the nerve. The procedure may be performed using an open or endoscopic approach depending on the patient's condition and surgeon's assessment.
