Comic Strip Title: "Carpal Tunnel Syndrome"

Summary:

The comic strip features a man who has developed carpal tunnel syndrome, a common condition caused by repetitive strain on the wrist. He visits his doctor, who is uninterested in his health and only concerned with the cost of treatment. The doctor's response is dismissive and focused on the financial aspect, leading the man to feel frustrated and unheard.

Key Elements:

  • The man's carpal tunnel syndrome is the central issue.
  • The doctor's lack of concern for the man's health is a key theme.
  • The doctor's focus on the cost of treatment is a recurring motif.
  • The man's frustration and feeling of being unheard are palpable throughout the strip.

Accompanying textual content, such as title, tags and transcripts, is shown here if we have it. Not every comic has all of these, and they seem to be a bit hit and miss even on the official website.
