Summary
This clinical trial aims to evaluate the effect of a single local platelet-rich plasma
 injection Versus local steroid injection in treating mild idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome
 regarding pain relief and function improvement and electrophysiological studies of the median
 nerve as a baseline and during a follow-up period of 3 months.
 
 The main question[s] it aims to answer are:
 
 - Does platelet-rich plasma injection provide better pain relief for CTS symptoms than
 steroid injection?
 
 - Does platelet-rich plasma improve parameters of median nerve conduction study than local
 steroid?
 
 Participants will have:
 
 - A complete history and clinical examination, including sensory and motor examination and
 provocative tests for CTS.
 
 - Visual analog scale (VAS), Symptom severity scale (SSS), and functional severity scale
 (FSS) of the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire (BCTQ) before local injection and three
 months after local injection by the same investigator.
 
 - Nerve conduction studies (NCS) for median and ulnar nerves were carried out before local
 injection and three months after local injection by the same investigator.
 
 Researchers will compare the efficacy of a single PRP local injection compared to a single
 corticosteroid local injection for treating mild idiopathic CTS using nerve conduction
 studies (NCS), Visual Analog Scale (VAS), and Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire (BCTQ) as
 objective and subjective outcome measures.
