Hello,

I had surgery this morning on my right (dominant) hand and I am not sure what to expect. I know what my dr told me, but I don't want to try and over do it, especially in the beginning. My dr told me I could return to work in a few days, so that's the plan, unless of course I feel like I need more time off. I was under general anesthesia and didn't have my hand numbed, so I immediately felt the incision site and it hurts. Can anyone just kind if give me a bride overview if their surgery story? Thanks!
