A heating pad for carpal tunnel is both popular and effective. Most doctors agree that using heat is the better way to “treat” carpal tunnel syndrome. Unlike ice, heat promotes healing and restoration of damaged tissues. The healing process is what will ultimately make the inflammation disappear for good.
What helps carpal tunnel at night?
Relieve nighttime pain by gently shaking your hand and wrist or hanging your hand over the side of the bed. Buy a wrist splint at the drugstore to keep your hand properly aligned. It may help to wear the splint at night to keep you from flexing or overextending your wrist while you sleep.
What is the best thing to do for carpal tunnel?
Take a pain reliever, such as aspirin, ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) or naproxen sodium (Aleve). Wear a snug, not tight, wrist splint at night. You can find these over-the-counter at most drugstores or pharmacies. Avoid sleeping on your hands.
