The surgeon Said he wont do left hand as if it didnt work in right it wont in left he sent me for a mri in neck to see if i have a trapped nerve or if they need to think about a complicated operation had injection in base of spine but It didnt work but I now have added pain where i was injected

Hi again Tracy! "He won¨t do left hand", does it mean nothing actually went wrong during the surgery of the right hand!?

In most cases a carpal tunnel operation has a good result in diminishing pain, numbness, tingling etc. But it can take time before it gets better. When did you have the surgery done? I had it done in March 2014. During the first year there were only some very sloooow improvements and sometimes I even got worse, with new symptoms arising (I was in a terrible state), and just some of the old ones of symptoms disappearing. But now in May and during this summer I'm still improving and much faster than before. Why it is so I don't know for sure, and my doctor either. I can only speculate, but I think one reason for my relatively late improvement must be the case my median nerve is less and less trapped along the way. I can nowadays even feel the nerve being trapped, and remembered my italian physiotherapist's advices and russian nerve trapement exercises from way back (from when I hade trapped nerve from the back down the leg from doing too much squats). At that time I couldn't feel my foot and knife sharp pain in the back of my leg from the hip for two years (the problems arising from an herniated disk in the back). THOSE neuro dynamic anti trapement exercises were about very sloooowly moving/swinging the leg back and forth all the way, and simultaneously stretching the foot up and down, while sitting on a table. Repeating for ten times 3-4 times a day.

I remembered those exercises and am now this year doing them for my two arms instead Slowly swinging my arms and while doing it stretching my wrists up and down - to let the median nerve move out of it's ordinary position now and then. I think that's what have helped me over the problem line. I'm very focused on when my nerve seems trapped and when it's not. It starts with unfunny feelings in the fingertips and irrational pain. More and more seldom though.

I kept thinking about why your carpal tunnel surgery didn't help and there wasn't anything wrong with the operation?! There could be two reasons for this: you have had carpal tunnel disease for a very long time before having the surgery done and it therefore takes longer to heal OR you have an underlying disease and that's why the carpal tunnel pain etc comes back (or even doesn't disappear) after the surgery. However, in the latter case pain etc can go away when the other underlying disease (hormone disorder etc) is taken care of.

He said it wouldnt do it has the pain is worse with my hand and arm and even shoulders in constant pain my fingers are stiff cant use hand very well my physio made it worse not better

If you're not already in contact also with one specialized pain clinic, maybe you and the doctor should consider that. Still is the question whether there is an underlying disease causing the carpal tunnel syndrome in the first place. Have you tried acupuncture?

i have tried everything i blame my doctors they ignored me for three years when i first went to see them it was only my thumb that hurt by the time they did everything it was both hands i have underactive thyroid so They knew i would be more prone to get it

its hard to trust anything at moment
