ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how well a combination of physical therapy, gabapentin, and ibuprofen arginine can help reduce pain in people with carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition that causes pain and discomfort in the hand and wrist. The researchers want to see if this combined treatment works better than taking ibuprofen arginine alone.

To participate, you need to be between the ages of 18 and 75 and have been medically diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. You should also be able to understand and speak Spanish, and you must agree to take part in the study. If you join, you will receive either the combined treatment or just the ibuprofen arginine, and the team will monitor your progress. It's important to note that if you have certain health issues, have had recent surgery, or are pregnant, you might not be eligible for this trial. This study is currently recruiting participants, so if you're interested, you could help contribute to important research in managing carpal tunnel syndrome.
