DEPENDS WHERE NUMB: If the numbness is toward the ring finger and little finger, then it is probably related to the surgery. Grip weakness - involves that same nerve. That would be an issue to be further evaluated. If the numbness is thumb + index + middle finger, it would not be related to the surgery. Further evaluation is necessary (such as ruling out Carpel Tunnel Syndrome)
