This study will investigate the effectiveness of repeated ozone therapy combined with splint therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).CTS patients will be split into two groups: ozone plus splint and splint only. Both groups will use wrist splints for 3 weeks, with the ozone+splint group receiving weekly ozone injections for three weeks.

| ozone injections | Procedure | Ozone injections (5 mL/10 μg/dL) were administered under aseptic conditions, with the wrist fixed in dorsiflexion, and with the insulin injector, a 23-gauge needle was inserted between the palmaris longus and flexor carpi radialis muscles at a 45-degree angle from the palmar distal line (Salutem/19147884379). |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire | As the score obtained from the survey increases, the improvement increases. | 10 minutes |
| visual analog scale | As the score approaches 10, the intensity of pain felt increases. | 1 minute |
| electromyography (EMG) | In the electrophysiological examination, median sensory nerve conduction studies and median motor nerve conduction studies will be measured. Median motor nerve latency, median motor nerve conduction velocity, and compound muscle action potential amplitude will be measured and recorded. | 10 minutes |
