Brief Answer:
Suggestive of mild CTS.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for posting your query.

I have noted your symptoms. They are suggestive of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). In this condition, the median nerve gets compressed at the level of wrist, resulting in tingling and burning sensation of fingers.

Nerve conduction test may be normal in the initial period.

As of now, you can take pregabalin capsules for relief of symptoms.

I hope it helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries.

Best wishes,

Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM (Neurology) XXXXXXX Consultant Neurologist
