Carpal Tunnel from Sexual Contact?

Hi community,

i have numbness in my arms and tingling in the end of my fingers that feels almost like a charlie horse. the doctor said it is carpal tunnel which makes sense cuz for months i used my computer in a bad angle on my bed that was bad for my wrists. it hurts when i flex my wrists because thats what carpal tunnel is. but now my partner has the same symptoms when he types but his ergonomics are better than mine so he wouldn't probably have gotten carpal tunnel on his own. is it possible to pass this condition through sexual contact???

thanx!!!

These relate to common bacteria that cause dysentry etc. For carpal  tunnel there is no recognized transmisson agent and thus you need not worry. ok?

Certainly not possible. But then, musing at the future (In a lighter vein,ofcourse) when love making becomes possible at the touch of the mouse may be? You made me smile and thank you for the same.
Incidentally there is information that the computer keyboard is the most polluted and teeming with bacteria that could get transmitted.
The scientist swabbed 33 keyboards for food poisoning bugs e.coli, coliforms, staphylococcus aureus and enterobacteria and compared the results to those found on a lavatory seat and lavatory door handle

Best wishes.
