How Long It Takes To Cure Pain After Carpal Tunnel Surgery?
Hi I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand 6 weeks ago I still have pain in my middle, pointer and thumb also in my wrist. I am still very weak where I find I can t hold onto most things without pain. Is it normal to still have this at this stage. Though I no longer lose feeling in my hand.

Hello
Use of machine can reduce your pain and swelling, you can ask your physiotherapist for therapy for CTS.
Use ice packs to reduce inflammation .
Physiotherapy with ultrasound and Tens will help you,
For early healing you can take Tab celin [vit C] and antioxidant with anti-inflammatory [Tab enzomac plus ].
If not relieved then you can go for repeat carpal tunnel release surgery as there can be inadequate release.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care
