Worse pain after CTR: You should ask your surgeon for ideas as to why you may be having more pain. Most carpal tunnel releases result in immediate improvement but if you had other procedures done on the nerve at the same time, your surgeon should be able to help you understand your recovery better.

Not normal: It is not normal to have these symptoms worsen after surgery. Please make an appointment with your Doctor for further evaluation.
