A member asked:

Had a ganglion cyst rupture a few days ago. is pain and sensitivity in wrist normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: post surgical pain and sensitivity are completely expected, and usually not a sign of anything "wrong". If you're concerned however, call your surgeon's office to be sure. Also, make sure to keep your post-op appointment. Hope this helps!
