Carpal tunnel Syndrome

A neurologist diagnosed a patient with carpal tunnel syndrome. The same patient also had a back problem and went to see an orthopedic surgeorn. The orthopedician was full of ego and told the patient he did not have carpal tunnel syndrome.

The patient came back to the neurologist and told him what the surgeon said.

The neurologist, being diplomatic and wanting to keep his turf too, said, "Yes, sir, the orthopedic Surgeon is absolutely right. You do not have carpal tunnel syndrome in your back!"
