Phalen's Test
Phalen's Test :
Test frequently used in the diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The patient holds both hands together in a praying position, but with the backs of the hands rather than the palms of the hands touching each other. This position contorts the carpal tunnel, and mildly pinching the median nerve. If, after a minute, the patient starts to feel tingling in the thumb, index, or middle finger, it suggests the possibility of carpal tunnel syndrome
