Prevention
Prevention varies depending on the cause. In patients with underlying diabetes, controlling blood sugar may reduce the risk of developing nerve disorders.
In occupations that require repetitive wrist movements, a change in the way the job is performed may be necessary. Frequent breaks in activity, "wrist rests" on keyboards, and other measures may reduce the risk of distal median nerve dysfunction. When possible, avoid prolonged repetitive movement of the wrist.
