How long does carpel tunnel syndrome take to get cured after a surgery?
Patient: EVERY NITE MY LEFT HAND WAKES ME UP WITH SO MUCH PAIN YEARS AGO A DR. IN NJ SAID I HAD THE START OF CARPEL TUNNEL IN BOTH HANDS BUT NOW THE LEFT HAND IS FAR WORSE THAN THE RIGHT I WEAR THE BRACE EVERY NITE NOW WHEN I SAW MY PC DR. SHE SAID WOULD I BE INERESET IN SURGERY NOW IM WONDER HOW LONG IT TAKES Doctor: Hello,  Surgery is the best possible option for carpal tunnel syndrome. It is a simple procedure which can be done under local anaesthesia.   You will improve in a short time following the procedure. Long term physiotherapy is required for best results.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care  Regards, Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
