Guest guest Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Hello all, For any of you who have had carpal tunnel surgery, I had this done June 23, and they also did a trigger finger release at the same time. I still have a lot of sensitivity in the area around the incisions, and swelling in my wrist. The joint around the middle (trigger) finger is still sore though doesn't trigger any more. Friday night when I went to cut a meat patty with my fork, there was a sharp pain in my palm. Before I call the surgeon, just thought I'd ask what anyone else's experience has been, how long it took for you to heal completely. I've been doing my hand therapy exercises and using the " silly putty " and if it just takes longer, I've got patience. I did have a bad infection right after the surgery, so maybe that set everything back a bit? At least there's no more numbness and I haven't quilted the cat lately! Thanks a lot, Judi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
