    There is no carpal muscle. “Carpal” is the name of the area of the body where this syndrom occurs.

    He’s referring to the transverse carpal ligament.

    Is the carpal muscle another vestigial tissue, or does it serve a perpose? Just cutting it sounds like it isn’t really important to us.

    This doesn’t always need surgery. My mom had it and healed with these wierd things on her wrists.

    Our animators use a program called Cinema 4D. You can download a free trial online. They also take graduate courses in anatomy, physiology, histology, molecular biology and other medical subjects so they can understand and explain the subject matter.

    Yes. This ligament holds tendons in close proximity to the wrist when you flex your hand.

    I third this question. I immediatly thought;”Wait, if it’s so tight, how can it even afford to be severed?”
