Carpal Tunnel Pain Worse After Surgery for Retail Merchandiser
Hi, my name is Linda, I live near the beach in South Carolina. I am employed as a retail merchandiser. I do a lot of handheld computer and repetitive scanning of items. My job requires a lot of traveling to my store calls. My hobbies include gardening and knitting. I have not been able to enjoy my hobbies with Carpal Tunnel. Approximately four years ago I began to develop sharp pains in both wrists and then the pain started shooting up my arms, my right hand first then my left hand.
I started getting a sharp pain in the palm of my hand and my fingers started tingling. My hands ached while I was driving. My fingers stared triggering while doing small tasks such as making the bed, laundry and other tasks. I was losing sleep due to the sharp pains in my hands during the night.
I then tried the wrist braces with the metal inserts and pain reliving creams. Which did very little help and my hands continued to worsen. It was starting to affect my job and my everyday activities. I began dropping items at work and home and was losing strength in both of my hands. I was losing mobility of my right thumb with intense pain. At this point I was really concerned about losing use of both my hands.
I went to my family doctor which referred me to an Orthopedic Specialist. The Specialist ordered a nerve conduction test, ultrasound and x-rays. After the tests, he advised that I needed Carpal Tunnel Surgery immediately on both hands because of possible permanent damage to my right hand. They did the surgery on my right first and six weeks later they performed surgery on my left hand.
I was advised that after a few weeks following the surgical procedure, that my hands would start getting better.
Instead of getting better after Carpal Tunnel Surgery, my hand pain, wrist pain, and tingling fingers got worse. The skin color on my right hand started turning a grayish color, not the normal flesh color.
I was in a lot of pain and I was still very concerned of losing use of my hands at this point. I received several steroid shots in the palms of my hands for the triggering fingers. I started getting depressed and irritable and worrying about not being able to work and function with my hands.

The Specialist then ordered an MRI on my upper spine thinking that my symptoms might be coming from there. I was also sent to a Pain Specialist for steroid shots into my spine. There was no relief or change from getting the shots. After this the Specialist advised me that he was at a loss and to give it some time. This was approximately 18 months after my surgery.
We then decided to get a second opinion from another Specialist. He ordered all the same test over again and prescribed pain medication. He also wanted me to see a spine specialist.
After two years of all the tests, surgeries and medications I felt like my hands were deteriorating and dying and I was ready to give up.

My husband decided that we should do more research concerning the issues with my hands. He discovered the Carpal Tunnel Solution site, we watched all the video testimonials and read all the information concerning the symptoms. We realized that a lot of the symptoms were the same as mine and that a lot of Carpal Tunnel Solutions clients were getting better.
We called and spoke to a representative which was very knowledgeable about Carpal Tunnel so we ordered the product. The product arrived in a couple of days, faster than we thought it would and I started using the product immediately. I followed all the recommended instructions and stretching exercises.
In my fifth week, I noticed that the strength had returned to my hands and the pain was gone in my left hand and almost gone in my right hand. I am now able to sleep at night and I can drive and work without pain in my hands.
The product “Carpal Tunnel Solution” is totally an “AMAZING” product. I cannot express how much of a blessing this is to me. I have saved my hands by using this treatment at home, when all the specialists, testing, surgery and expense could not. I am back working without pain. I am back knitting with my friends and doing my gardening. I am sincerely grateful to Carpal Tunnel Solution.
Thank You,

However, if you attempted Carpal Tunnel Surgery, and the surgery failed for you, like it did for Linda. There is still hope for relief after a failed Surgery.
The Carpal Solution Treatment will even work after a failed Carpal Tunnel Surgical Procedure for most people.
You need to wait at least 2 – 3 months after a surgical procedure before you use the Carpal Solution Treatment.
