    This document outlines the underlying processes involved in clinical reasoning for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). CTS results from overuse leading to increased pressure in the carpal tunnel, which compresses the median nerve. This causes decreased endoneurial blood flow, edema, and hypoxia of the median nerve. The clinical manifestations are thenar and lumbrical muscle weakness, pain, numbness, and decreased manual muscle and grip strength. Diagnosis can be aided by ultrasound examination of tendon gliding and the upper limb tension test (ULTT). Recommended exercises include isometric exercises, passive full range of motion, and assisted active exercises.
