Does Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Surgery Work??

Question

My mother in law has carpal tunnel syndrome. It has been getting more and more painful for her to work and do everyday chores around her house. Her doctor told her that if she doesn't improve she will need surgery. She is concerned if surgery will work at all since she knows a handful of people who have had it with no good results. Has anyone every had the surgery and has it worked?

Answer 1

I know of a few people that have had the surgery that had good results and I've also met a few that didn't have good results.

I would recommend that your mom get another opinion, preferably from a dr that does not share the same office of the dr she currently sees and maybe even consult a Pain Management specialist to see what kind of options they can give to help her. I had my mom do this when she started having symptoms of what they thought was carpal tunnel syndrome. Turned out that the results of the test weren't as bad as it was made out to be by the dr running the test. The Pain Management dr was able to help my mom. It also turned out that her problem was caused by the kind of chair that she was using at work.

Answer 2

try taking 1000 grams of vitamin b6 twice a day it should start working in about a week. the pain should go away,.
