In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The carpal tunnel within your wrist is a narrow passageway made up of small carpal bones and ligaments. The tunnel protects nerves, blood vessels and tendons that go into your hand. The main nerve that innervates your hand is called the median nerve. Avoid activities that compress and irritate the median nerve such as repetitively flexing your wrist, lifting heavy weights with your hands, sleeping with bent wrists and punching solid objects.  Wearing tight bracelets and watches may be a risk factor also, so make sure to leave ample space. In many cases of carpal tunnel syndrome, a single cause is difficult to identify. Often it involves a combination of factors, such as arthritis or diabetes combined with repetitive strain in the wrist. The wrist anatomy of people can make a difference — some have naturally smaller passageways in their wrists or have carpal bones that are positioned oddly. Stretching your wrists on a regular basis can be effective at reducing or minimizing carpal tunnel symptoms. In particular, wrist extensions can help make more room for the median nerve in the carpal tunnel by stretching the ligaments that attach to the carpal bones. The easiest way to extend and stretch both wrists at the same time is the "prayer pose" with your palms together. Put your palms together in front of your chest and raise your elbows until you feel a nice stretch in your wrists. Hold for 30 seconds and repeat 3-5x daily.  You can also grab the fingers of the affected hand and pull backwards until you feel a stretch at the front of your wrist. You may feel more temporary tingling in your hand with this stretch, but don't stop unless you feel pain. In addition to hand tingling, other symptoms commonly associated with carpal tunnel syndrome are: numbness, throbbing pain, muscle weakness and color changes (too pale or too red). The only part of the wrist/hand typically spared symptoms is the little finger — it's not innervated by the median nerve. The symptoms of carpal tunnel are often related to having inflammation/swelling in the wrist, which either directly irritates the median nerve or crowds (pinches) it. As such, taking OTC non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil) or naproxen (Aleve), can be very helpful to reduce symptoms short term. Painkillers such as acetaminophen (Tylenol, Paracetamol) can be used for carpal tunnel also, but they don't impact swelling, only the pain.  Anti-inflammatories and analgesics should be considered short-term strategies for pain control. There isn't any evidence that these drugs improve carpal tunnel syndrome in the long term.  Taking too many NSAIDs or taking them for too long significantly increases your risk of stomach irritation, ulcers and kidney failure. Taking too much acetaminophen or taking it for too can cause liver damage. As an alternative, rub an ointment that contains a natural pain reliever into your sore wrist/hand. Menthol, camphor, arnica and capsaicin are all helpful for relieving mild-to-moderate pain. If your wrist is sore and looks or feels swollen, then apply a small bag of crushed ice (or something cold) to it in order to reduce inflammation and numb the pain. Doing so may also reduce hand symptoms. Cold therapy is most effective for soft-tissue injuries that involve some sort of swelling because it reduces blood flow. Apply the crushed ice to your wrist for about 5-10 minutes 3-5x daily until the symptoms subside.  Compressing the ice against your wrist with a stretchy Tensor or Ace bandage is even more effective for fighting inflammation. Always wrap ice in a thin cloth before applying it skin — it prevents skin irritation or frostbite. If crushed ice isn't available, use a large ice cube, frozen gel pack or small bag of frozen veggies instead. In some cases, cold therapy may aggravate the symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. Avoid ice if that's the case with you.
Summary: Avoid irritating your median nerves. Stretch your wrists. Take over-the-counter (OTC) anti-inflammatories. Use cold therapy.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Pick recipes that you find appealing, then make them yourself. As you get better at cooking, try recipes that include new skills that you haven’t yet tried. Don’t be afraid to experiment with recipes to make them your own. Play around with different types of cuisine to see what fits your style and taste. For example, you might make Italian food one night, Mexican food the next night, then your own twist on hamburgers. Part of the fun of being a chef is making your own special dishes. Once you’re familiar with common ingredients, start playing around with recipes to make them your own. Take risks so you can create something totally new!  Start by making changes to an existing recipe to make something different. Then, try mixing ingredients without following a recipe. Some of your creations will be a success, while others might be inedible. This is normal, so don’t give up! While it’s scary to open yourself up to criticism, feedback can help you grow as a chef. Make food for people as often as you can, then ask them what they liked or didn’t like about your dishes. Incorporate the feedback that makes sense to you. If you can, serve your food to people who enjoy the type of cuisine you like to make. They’ll be able to provide a better opinion. For instance, let’s say you enjoy making Indian food. You’ll get better feedback from someone who enjoys Indian food. You can learn a lot from watching others. Watch cooking shows and online tutorials to see how other chefs work. Additionally, observe chefs or chefs-in-training who you know. Try to learn from the way they work. Don’t worry about copying the way someone does something. You want to have your own style! However, it helps to watch how they perform certain skills and how they get creative with ingredients. While it would be awesome to start out as a chef, it takes time to work your way up the career ladder. Start with a low-level restaurant job that will help you learn the skills you need. Apply for any restaurant jobs that you see advertised locally. Your first restaurant job probably won’t be prestigious, but everyone starts at the bottom. You’ll likely work as a line cook. This will help you learn the skills you need to move up the career ladder and eventually become a chef.
Summary:
Practice cooking at home to build your skills. Experiment with food to create your own recipes. Cook for other people to get feedback on your meals. Watch other chefs to learn their techniques. Get a job at a restaurant to build your skills and resume.
