Carpal tunnel in pregnancy

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

Hello,
I have a pregnant patient in third trimester who has bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome. I'm starting acupuncture treatment with points for edema in pregnancy: Sp 9, Sp 3, St 36, Kid 7, Ub 20. Should I use some local points?
Thanks,
Ivana
