Maggyie--check into gluten intolerance. You shouldn't have carpal tunnel at your age, is definitely correct. One of my sons, will be 29 in a few weeks, he had carpal tunnel surgery on one hand a few months ago, he is too young too. Gluten can cause neuropathy type symptoms, some times, once a person goes gluten free, the neuropathy goes away too. I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel before I knew what gluten was. Yet, because of my intolerance, I was not absorbing vitamins and minerals as I should, which caused the nerves to start dying.
Check into it, you might be surprised.
