I had carpal tunnel surgery less than 2 years ago. i am still having issues. should i do the surgery again.?

Carpal tunnel issues: Since not everything that looks like carpal tunnel is that, there may be something else that was the original problem or ....Many possible other explanations. I suggest you see a neurologist and if he/she thinks it would be helpful, get a qualified neurologist to do an electrodiagnostic study to determine where, exactly, the problem is.

Hand Consult: Get a consult with an experienced hand surgeon. Sometimes the original surgery was incomplete and may need to be redone. Carpal tunnel can also recur with successful surgery. Other causes such as spinal disease should be ruled out as well. A nerve test will help with the diagnosis.

See your doctor: Recurrent cts is not common so your pain may be due to a different problem. A visit to your dr. Is suggested. Occupational therapy may help.

Hand surgery consult: You would benefit from seeing an experienced hand surgeon. There may be other issues that are causing these symptoms or it may be from either recurrent or persistent carpal tunnel syndrome. A detailed exam and diagnostic studies like ultrasound, MRI or nerve studies can help determine the next step in treatment options.

Emg: you should repeat the EMG first and compare it to the old one. If it is worse than you should have surgery. If it is way better then no
