I've had success with B complex vitamins in combination with 3-4x full body cardio workouts per week and chiropractor visits. The B Complex aids in the reduction of inflammation of the nerve sheaves, the primary cause of carpal tunnel, while the cardio workouts flush your lymphatic system as well as maintain general good health.

Thank you. I run 3x/week and lift weights 2x/week. Can't say its been helping, but maybe I need to work out even more. I'll definitely look into the B Complex. Out of curiosity, what does the chiropractor do during your session? I have my first appointment in a few weeks.

  I code a lot, often in focus for 4-6 hours at a time, and that causes back strain between my shoulder blades, an area a past chiropractor called the "mouse muscle" because it is the single muscle near the spine that holds the weight of your arm when manipulating a mouse and keyboard. Plus, due to neck strain from staring at screens, I typically need a neck adjustment to relieve base of neck stiffness. Also, when you work out, do you protect your wrists? I make sure to use barbells with angle grips or vertical grips so my wrists are not bearing the weight; If to lift a weight my wrists are vertical, and not horizontal, the strain of the weight is bared by wrist bones and not tendons and muscles. I also take a Lysine+b6 supplement, which seems to help recovery from strenuous workouts where the muscles may have been over stressed. Lysine is a protein used my connective tissue, like skin, cartilage, and tendons. I have no idea if the supplement is realistically a good idea, but it seems to help my recoveries. It's also related to stress management, and I manage a lot of stress.
