Carpal tunnel syndrome(Acupucture treatment) 腕管综合征

Male, 39 years old, has been diagnosed  with carpal  tunnel for 1 year. He started seeing me on April 07, 2015. At that time, he complained of pain in his index and middle finger on both hands. It was worse during the nighttime than it was during the day. He also has pain in the tendons that joint the forearm muscles on the outside of the elbow (lateral epicondyle )when pressure is applied on it.  He plays guitar every Sunday. Sometimes his fingers get so tight that he cannot open his fingers when he plays.
He accepted 2 sessions of acupuncture with moxibustion, an acupuncture technique where a stick of moxa is lit and the tip is gently applied to the needle handle. The heat from the moxa will transfer into the points and travel through the meridians. This will purge the coldness from his joints. The following Sunday, he didn't feel any pain when he was playing guitar, and he is really happy about this amazing result. He continues his treatment so his carpal tunnel can be fixed.

男性,39岁。患腕管综合征1年。2015年4月7日初诊。主诉:二三指麻痛,手腕容易累,时麻时紧,日轻夜重。当用稍重的力按压肱骨外上的韧带时,有痛感。他每周日都弹吉他。有时手指紧到不能张开。2次针灸加艾灸治疗后,他在跟着的星期天弹了几乎一天的吉他,但他一点也没有感到手指痛或麻或不能张开。他对于治疗结果极其满意,现在继续治疗,务求彻底治好。
