Ekangavata: Vata vitiated in any part of the body afflicts that part and causes Ekanga vata. If the morbid vata / vayu is vitiated in the hand it can cause symptoms resembling CTS because the symptoms like pain, numbness, loss of movements, feeling of needles, pins and ants etc are generally caused by morbid vayu be it the whole body or a part of it. To be precise Ekanga vata in the hand can be the symptoms of CTS manifested due to the degeneration of tendons in the carpal tunnel leading to median nerve irritation.
