UPMC is offering free carpal tunnel screenings for individuals with wrist numbness, tingling, weakness, or pain on March 13, 2025 on the campus of UPMC West Shore at 2005 Technology Pkwy., Suite 255, Mechanicsburg, PA 17050.
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs in one to five percent of the population and is more likely to occur in women and people between the ages of 40 and 60. When left untreated, the condition can cause a decreased quality of life due to pain and an inability to hold everyday items such as steering wheels or phones.
The event runs between 4 and 6 p.m. and will feature UPMC neurosurgeon Dr. John Braca, plastic surgeon Dr. Peter Wallick, and sports medicine specialist Dr. Mark Lavallee. Participants will learn about UPMC’s treatment options, including a new ultrasound guided, minimally invasive procedure. Registration is required.
Register for the free carpal tunnel syndrome screening event.
