Carpal tunnel can develop from chemical exposures too, although that is not recognized by traditional doctors. They only recognize repetative movements as the cause. I didn't do repetatve work! I developed bilateral carpal tunnel from exposures at work in a chemical factory. I had the surgeries but the problems came back when I returned to work. Later I was diagnosed with Multiple Chemical Sensitivities.
