Hi all. I have cprs in my foot for 1.5 years. I didn't have an injury that I can identify, but the docs think I had a tarsal tunnel entrapment originally, which is now better.

Now I am having pain in my right hand, which appears to be a carpel tunnel problem. I recently changed desks at work, and my job involves a lot of typing, so it make sense. I don't have any other cprs symptoms in my hand... No swelling, temp changes, etc. and the pain is not a all like in my foot.

The doc gave me a brace to wear at night and other activities that are causing pain, mostly when I type and drive. Now, I know that immobilization is not good for people with cprs, but the brace seems to be helping. I've been using it for about a week, at night and a little bit during the day (luckily am on vacation from work). So, since the brace is helping, I think having less pain in my hand is more of a "pro" than the immobilization is a "con" when it comes to potential spread of cprs. What do you think?

(By the way, I am also taking 1 mg vitamin C a day)
