Manual Numbness and Pain09/08/2008 |
I had carpal tunnel surgery in both wrists in April 2006, along with an anterior cervical discectomy. I still have pain in my wrists as well as numbness in my hands. Why?
If you feel numbness, it takes time for the nerves to recover (1-3 years). But if it is pain, you need to check with both surgeons who performed surgery to see whether it is coming from the neck or the CTS.
