I had carpal tunnel surgery on Wed. All went ok until Wed evening as the numbness wore off and it was too late to get the pain med prescription filed. I try to avoid taking pills if at all possible and the nurse had said I might be able to get by with Advil. Now I have had 4 knee surgeries including complete replacement and 2 foot surgeries and the pain with this when the numbness wore off was off the charts. As a friend explained it kind of makes sense since you have a lot of nerves in your hand. I got on the pain meds as soon as I could and after three days completely off them, but that first day it was like my hand was on fire with no relief. Hope to be back shooting in 4 weeks.
