Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Comparison of flexor retinaculum stretch and carpal mobilizations in carpal tunnel syndrome patients.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

* Carpal Bones Mobilization tends to improve the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
* Manual stretching of the flexor retinaculum effective in CTS patients.
* As there are no studies available to compare the effectiveness of flexor retinaculum stretch and carpal bone mobilization for the treatment of CTS, hence the purpose of this study is to find the effectiveness of carpal bone mobilization and flexor retinaculum stretch in improving Pain, ROM and Functional Status in patient with CTS.
