I am going to have carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand. What is the recovery period?
In general 4-6 weeks. The surgery is painful and your hand will remain swollen for a few days. You will need pain medications afterwards. After the pain subsides, you will need to enroll in some type of exercise program.
Think twice about the surgery, as success after carpal tunnel is rare and not guaranteed.
