Summary

This study compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided injection around the nerve versus a small-incision surgery to relieve pressure. Researchers will measure pain and hand function in 60 adults with mild to severe symptoms over 12 weeks. The goal is to see if the less invasive injection works as well as surgery.
