Hello.
CTS is the most common nerve entrapment in the body and is common during and after pregnancy. It can be secondary to multiple factors.
Recurrent CTS usually means an underlying condition like an endocrine issue or even a habitual hand position.Please see a physician who will order the necessary tests.
Please use wrist splints in the night for symptom relief for the time being and meet a nerve surgeon if the problem persists.
Regards.
