Article Abstract
No significant reduction from baseline GSS was seen at second,and fourth weeks in the placebo,NSAID-SR,and diuretic groups.However,the mean score at 4 weeks in the steroid group decreased significantly from a baseline of 27.9+6.9 to 10+7.4.For patients with mild to moderate CTS who opt for conservative treatment,corticosteroids are of greater benefit.
