Carpal Tunnel Surgery on Self

Here's a Filipino doctor doing carpal tunnel surgery on himself.



What's Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, anyway?

"Any condition that causes swelling or a change in position of the tissue within the carpal tunnel can squeeze and irritate the median nerve. Irritation of the median nerve in this manner causes tingling and numbness of the thumb, index, and the middle fingers."

This is a common injury for computer users, by the way.
