简要总结

There was no significant difference in overall efficacy between focused extracorporeal shockwave therapy and steroid injections for moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. However, single-session fESWT demonstrated greater pain improvement at the 12th week compared to steroid injections, suggesting it may be a preferable option for patients concerned about steroid side effects.
