Burning & Numbness in Hands? Try This Simple Test | Phalen’s Test | Dr. Praveen Kumar Etta

Do you experience burning, numbness, tingling, or pins-and-needles in your hands and fingers? It could be related to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, especially when the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and half of the ring finger are affected. In this video, learn about the Phalen’s Test, a simple clinical examination used to help suspect Carpal Tunnel Syndrome caused by compression of the median nerve at the wrist. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can be associated with diabetes, thyroid disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, pregnancy, and kidney-related fluid retention. If you have persistent symptoms, consult a qualified doctor for proper evaluation. Tests such as nerve conduction studies may be recommended for confirmation. #CarpalTunnelSyndrome #PhalensTest #HandNumbness #BurningHands #MedianNerve #Diabetes #HandTingling #WristPain #HealthTips #MedicalAwareness Welcome to the official YouTube channel of Dr. Praveen Kumar Etta, Senior Nephrologist & Kidney Transplant Physician with over 20 years of experience in advanced kidney care.
