Wrist surgery


Scruit

Recommended Posts

After several weeks of unexplained wrist pain I finally have surgery scheduled to remove a cyst that is compressing a nerve.

Anyone had something similar done? What was the recovery time etc?

They will be using "Moderate Conscious Sedation" and claim I'll be able to return to work (IT) the next day.

I'm expecting one day of absolute suck age, a few days of wrist pain, a couple weeks of soreness and then the balance of 6-8 weeks in a splint. My riding season is likely over.

you'd be surprised.. even after my hand and wrist surgery broke bones in both. I was back to riding as soon as my pseudo cast was off.. required a pain reliever or 2 but it was doable.. the worst problem i had was building the strength back after a month of little mobility..
