Capral Tunnel Dissorders
Generally, CTDs result from several or all of the following factors occurring independently or at the same time:
repetitive motion
done in an awkward posture
using some force
without allowing for sufficient rest
It should be noted that the cause of CTD is complicated. Scientific evidence indicates that CTD is linked to work-related activities like writing, typing, assembly, and tool use. It has been shown that nonoccupational factors also contribute to the development of CTDs, principally body weight, pre-existing injuries, physical fitness, smoking, age and health conditions such as diabetes, arthritis, and thyroid conditions.CTD takes years to fully develop, and almost as long to subside. Once you experience it, you will always be at risk for further incidence. By informing yourself and taking care of yourself, you can prevent CTD or learn to avoid flare-ups if you have already experienced symptoms.
