Carpal Tunnel Help

[Ashley Alleyne]

Hey Guys!
I was just wondering if anyone else, or if anyone has any tips for people with carpal tunnel? I’ve been playing for ten years, and I have Syn’s Standard, and I haven’t been able to play for a while because I found out I have carpal tunnel. It’s one of the hardest things I have gone through, and it’s driving me insane and making me depressed to not be able to play, so I was wondering if anyone had any tips or recovery tricks to help? Much appreciated- thanks!

I haven’t been diagnosed, but I’ve had symptoms in the past and pain in my wrists. I’ve found that wearing a wrist brace for a few days usually helps straighten things back out for awhile and doesn’t get in the way of playing too much. It was pretty quick to adjust to also when I need it.

I would say try to check your stance. Im not sure what the symptoms of carpal tunnel are but it seems something that can be fixed by havig a good stance
