Additionally, if your husband is an ironworker, he probably needs to re-learn how to grasp the materials/tools in a different manner than he currently does. He needs to work on correcting the cause of the problem if possible.
Do a google search on 'carpal tunnel syndrome + gardening'.
You'll find a few good pictures that show how to grasp tools, what movements to avoid especially involving placement of the thumb when grasping tools/ shovels, and how he should avoid pinching the fingers together when grasping materials, etc.
Maybe your husband could adapt this advice and instructions to his ironwork.
P.S. Merry Christmas Eve!
