Very useful info, I’m 2 weeks away from surgery
I am 1 week out of right hand open carpel tunnel release. I am in a full splint for 2 weeks and was told to move my fingers regularly, but that is it.
Perfect timing for this video and very well explained.
Glad you think so!🙏
I had an open release but I had a cubital tunnel surgery done at the same time.
Will I ever be able to do handstands and push ups after surgery in both hands
June 5 I go in for carpal tunnel release, de quervains release, and a cyst removal. Any tips or advice? That's left hand. When I heal, I go in for right carpal tunnel and de quervains
How long before I can take care of babies I work with?
Is bruising on the forearm normal?
Just had my surgery yesterday. I didn't get a dressing..I got a bandaid. I had carpal tunnel and tendonitis surgery. My incisions doesn't hurt at all. My main pain is swollen. And I didn't get any pain medicine.
Just curious
You had your surgery 4 weeks ago? How do you feel? Did your symptoms subside? Numbness anymore?
Hi, its been almost 5 weeks since the surgery and i still have noticable swelling in the wrist. Wound is healing well and getting massaged regularly but is the swelling normal?
Yes, swelling is normal for several weeks, usually even a few months.
@@VirtualHandCare thank you for the video and response 🙏
Great video I am not even 24 hours postop😂! And I’m sure I’m going to fall into that overly cautious category but definitely will try to stretch !
Glad I cooked the morning of my operation 👏🏼 so I have left overs 😮💨
to dry or not too dry ? that is the question. answer is.... too
Yeah, that stood out to me too!
Hi Michele I have polio and I use my hands and arms to get up from my scooter and chairs. Would I be risking damage to my stitches if I continued to do same immediately after surgery? Is there a way around my problem? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Putting a lot of pressure on the stitches could possible affect the healing or just make it take a little longer. But your doctor may leave them in longer, have you keep your post op dressings on longer for added protection, maybe use a different suture technique, etc. There are a lot of ways to keep your incision protected.
Wipe your butt is most important!
