What are good exercises to recover from carpal tunnel surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Move fingers: The most important excerise is to move your fingers. Make a tight fist hold it for 5 seconds and then bring your fingers all the way straight and hold it for 5 seconds. Typically no strengthening excersises are required your strength will return as the sorness resolves.
