my old dear had both hands done a few years ago. she says that the op was relatively painless. but she had a lot of aches and pains afterwards. i wouldnt worry about it fullergoals!

I had carpel tunnel in both hands and had them done a few years ago. left 1st right 2nd.I was off work for between 8 - 10 weeks each time.The op didnt hurt(both done under local).Very painful for 3 or 4 days after but the pain gradually wore off.Was driving again about 2 weeks after but couldnt work as I had a manual job.
The worst part is not being able to wipe yer arse.

I thought it was the name of the potential new underpass!
