What Causes Numbness In Fingers Despite Carpal Tunnel Release Surgery?

The upper half inside of my fore finger and thumb have been partially numb / sensitive to cold for over 5 months. I went to chiropractor 19 times. I had carpal tunnel release surgery and still have the issue with no affect. Symptoms are continuous 24/7. I m a 51 male, 204 lb. What could be causing the issue? Thanks. Glen

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the symptom is due to nerve compression then it need to be tested for that and I would advise you to consult the neuro physician even after the surgery if symptoms is still there then it would be matter of concern and may demand the attention hope this information helps.
