Please say more: Scar pain can be helped with massage, laser treatments and stretching. Persistent nerve pain needs to be reexamined. Sometimes the carpel tunnel syndrome is presumed to be the source of your problems, but a posture or neck problem goes under-appreciated until the surgery does not give full relief. Obesity and diabetes can prevent full recovery.

Palm pain after: Carpal tunnel release can be due to soft tissue or incisional irritation, and so called pillar pain where the ligament attaches to the edges of the carpal tunnel bones. But there is arthritis of the wristor base of thumb, other areas of tendon irritation such as trigger finger, tendonitis of flexors of the wrist, pain over the pisiform due to arthritis and others that had nothing to due with it.
