A member asked:
What can be done for nerve damage from bypass surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Talk to the surgeon: Surgery can involve damage to nerves and tissues that takes time to heal. The healing may be incomplete and leave areas of numbness and dysesthesia. This can be managed with medication. Neuromas may develop that can be managed with medical or surgical treatment. These issues can be easily addressed by the surgeon and consultants he considers appropriate.
