CTS has many possible contributors, including wrist imbalance which leads people to make repetitive motions with their hands without allowing time for decompression i.e health problems like arthritis (which contributes to pain), pregnancy-related swelling of tissue around blood vessels near nerves at bases where they enter bone above thumb joint called “bulb” plus poor posture.
