The present randomized clinical trial will perform a comparison of the pain reduction effect produced by the application of an oral gabapentin (pharmaceutical) treatment, to the pain reduction effect produced by the lack of treatment in subjects diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome. Additionally, effects over the functionality of the affected upper limb will be evaluated and compared. Subjects will be invited to participate and randomly allocated to 2 different groups.
In the present investigation the pain reduction effects of Gabapentin will be compared to those produced by the absence of treatment, in subjects who suffer the signs and symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome.
