<![CDATA[Bilateral Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a disorder of the upper extremities caused by compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel, resulting in pain, tingling, numbness, decreased muscle strength, and limited wrist range of motion which leads to decreased functional activity, this condition commonly occurs due to repetitive activities over a long period and requires appropriate physiotherapy management, this study aims to determine the effectiveness of physiotherapy interventions in the form of ultrasound and exercise therapy in reducing pain, improving range of motion, muscle strength, and functional activity in patients with bilateral CTS, the method used was a case study of a 63-year-old patient (Mrs. W) diagnosed with bilateral CTS at Hermina Arcamanik Hospital, the intervention was carried out in four therapy sessions consisting of ultrasound, nerve gliding exercise, tendon gliding exercise, fingers down position, and fist position, evaluation was conducted using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), goniometer, Manual Muscle Testing (MMT), and Wrist Hand Disability Index (WHDI), the results showed a decrease in pain, improvement in range of motion, increased muscle strength, and enhanced functional activity, therefore it can be concluded that physiotherapy interventions in the form of ultrasound and exercise therapy are effective in improving the condition of patients with bilateral Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.]]>
