There is no scientific evidence to support the theory that computers cause carpal tunnel syndrome. However, there could be some correlation between computer use and carpal tunnel syndrome incidence. It is possible that people who work with computers frequently experience greater pressures on their hands and wrists than those who do not, which in turn can lead to Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Additionally, many people who develop Carpal Tunnel Syndrome also report suffering from other conditions such as diabetes or arthritis, both of which may increase the risk for nerve compression. However, it is still unclear whether computer use actually causes Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or if these other factors are simply related to its onset.
