A member asked:
I had a de quervain's release 7 weeks ago. i am still in a lot of pain and i have no feeling on the back of my hand and thumb. will i get feeling back?

De Quervain: While de Quervain's can affect the thumb. The numbness is concerning. It is possible this could be a surgical complication. I would discuss with the surgeon to rule out possibility of injury to the radial nerve. This can be tested with nerve conduction testing.
