C.B. Writes:
I have been offerd surgery for my trapped nerves in both
elbows, how successful is this procedure and will i have
reduced uses of both elbows after this procedure?
Tolessa Replies:
Dear C.B,
You are probably talking about cubital tunnel syndrome
which is an ulnar nerve entrapment at the level of the elbow. I assume you had a nerve conduction study to support the clinical diagnosis. Generally the surgery has
got a good outcome. Right after surgery patients are adviced to start range of movement exercises.
Wish you good luck.
