Local vs systemic corticosteroids in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.

S M Wong1, A C Hui, A Tang, P C Ho, L K Hung, K S Wong, R Kay, E Li.   

Abstract

The authors compared the effectiveness of low-dose, short-term oral prednisolone vs local methylprednisolone injection in a prospective, double-blinded, parallel treatment study of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). A single injection of 15 mg methylprednisolone resulted in significant improvement in global symptom scores over a 12-week period. This study demonstrated the superiority of local steroid injection to oral steroid in the treatment of CTS.
