I cannot make a fist with my right hand, I have numbness & pain.in my fingers. My left hand is similar.
I had two open heart surgeries last year. The problem was on my right hand before the surgery, but has worsened. Does anyone know what causes this & what can be done about it? Heart surgeon, plastic surgeon, cardiologist, GP, PA & physical therapist all had the same answer. Looking for a better answer than “Hm-m-m”.

My first surgery was a double by-pass. The second operation was flap surgery & was needed after my sternum broke apart & the procedure was performed by plastic surgeons. I did not suffer a heart attack & I did not have a stroke.

Wow, there is humanity in a rough boiled atheist? Be a person and spend a while along with your dad. I'm certain he could benefit from the organization. I want desire and pray on your father a triumphant operation and a quick healing and cure for your dating along with your father if that's wanted. I'm an unashamed Christian; in spite of any sparks that can fly on Yahoo over petty concerns reminiscent of construction/evolution, I want no emotional, bodily, or religious affliction on someone. I desire you increase peace that passes know-how. Bob

Have you had a stroke as well? That can cause limb problems.
