Carpal Tunnel Release - Local Anesthesia

Carpal Tunnel Release - Local Anesthesia is available through Mark Cuban Companies Health Plan at a published cash price, paid when you book.

Carpal tunnel release with local anesthesia is a surgical procedure used to treat carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition characterized by compression of the median nerve in the wrist. During the procedure, the surgeon makes a small incision in the palm of the hand and cuts the transverse carpal ligament to relieve pressure on the median nerve. Local anesthesia is used to numb the hand and wrist, allowing the patient to remain awake during the procedure while minimizing discomfort. This minimally invasive approach typically results in a quicker recovery compared to traditional open surgery performed under general anesthesia.
