Wrist pain is a fairly common problem among people who work with a computer. Sometimes the discomfort is so intense that it hurts to even think about leaning on your wrists. What to do? You can start by doing some simple asanas to get rid of this problem.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (carpal tunnel syndrome, CTS) is a neurological disease manifested by prolonged pain and numbness of the fingers. Refers to tunnel neuropathy. The cause of the disease is compression of the median nerve between the bones and tendons of the muscles of the wrist.
