Answers from Peter C. Amadio, M.D. Probably not. When used alone, carpal tunnel exercises aren't likely to relieve symptoms, such as pain and numbness. And they don't replace other carpal tunnel treatments, such as surgery, behavior modification or wrist splints.
The cause of cystic fibrosis (CF) is a defect in a gene called the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. This gene makes a protein that controls the movement of salt and water in and out of the cells in your body.
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited, chronic disease that interferes with the respiratory, digestive and reproductive systems. Mutations of a specific gene (the CFTR) affect the cells that line the organs of these three systems.This defective gene causes the production of thick, sticky mucus.It builds up and clogs the small airways and passageways which carry harmful bacteria out of the body.hough the research is very promising, there is no cure yet for Cystic Fibrosis.
