You need to have the electronic test done. I have to warn you it is VERY PAINFUL to have the test done. But that is the true way to tell. I have it in both hands so I know. And it takes awhile to get a diagonsis for it..They just do not hand them out anymore. I got mine from years of typing and working on helecopters....using my hands for putting screws in...
Sometimes if you refrain from a repetative action you may start to notice a diffrence and the pain well lesson.

They used to diagnose it differently, is possible that your sister is being treated for a condition she doesnt really have.
It take years for carpal tunnel syndrom to wear out the wrist joints, something that honestly cannot happen in an average childs life time. It takes secretaries who work 8-10 hours a day atleast ten years to aquire such a condition.
I'd just be careful that you're not stressing your joints and that you're keeping them healthy.

an outstanding variety of wrist pains can extremely be released via doing right here exercising on them: For wrist: Have your hand and palms 0.5 closed. Take your different hand and press that thumb around the section they take your pulse on and press on it stressful and carry. loosen up, take a deep breath and exhale and don’t stressful up any area of your physique. After 30 seconds slowly open your hand each and each of how and then open your palms each and each of how. do away with the strain yet carry your hand like that for one minute longer.

dID THEY DO TEST WHERE THEY START AT YOUR NECK AND GO DOWN YOUR ARM? iF NOT THEN THEY DON'T KNOW, does your hands go to sleep? Sometimes even if you have it, you can watch what your doing with wrists, maybe painting or staying on computer using hands, alot of times it will stop if you realise how you are irritating it.

There's a test they can perform that will determine if you have it or not. It involves sending electrical current through your arm and measuring the resistance on an oscilloscope.
