Most people with carpal tunnel syndrome are treated without surgery. Surgery is considered only when: 1  Symptoms haven't improved after several weeks to months of nonsurgical treatment. 2  This assumes that you are having ongoing symptoms but no sign of nerve damage. 3  Nerve damage would make surgery more urgent.
