carpel tunnel post op 7 weeks and still in pain!
Posted , 13 users are following.
Dear Friends
I had carpel tunnel surgery 7 weeks ago and I feel that my wrist and arm
are worse now than before the surgery.
First 2 days I cried almost nonstop with the pain.
I am suppose to get the other wrist done and now I don't want to get it
done. I also have broken sleep as I wake up alot.
I have had 5 other surgeries years ago but this was unbearable.
My wrist is painful all the time and I can't lift the kettle yet among other
tasks. I have also done exercises.
I have however tried advice from other people like desensitising the scar
by rubbing the hand textured fabrics etc and massaging. This has helped alittle but the pain is still intense.
My wrist feels burning, sharp pains and muscle weakness in hand and arm
Has any one had these problems and does it get better with time.
God bless

Up until a week ago I was still getting pins and needles the same as before the surgery.
However that seems to have settled. Since surgery my thumb is stiff to move and I get shooting pains in my wrist
.The palm of my hand is tight and sensitive to touch. The pain is also waking me up in the night. I can only describe
It as it feels like someone is bending my hand backwords.
I am hoping this will all ease of in time.
Hopefully you will also get some relief to.
