Sugar-Water injection vs. steroid shot: which works better for carpal tunnel?

NCT ID NCT07105540

Summary

This study compared two different injection treatments for moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers tested whether an ultrasound-guided injection of a sugar-water solution (dextrose) to separate the nerve was more effective than a standard steroid injection around the nerve. The goal was to see which treatment provided better and longer-lasting relief from pain, numbness, and hand weakness in 53 participants.
