A member asked:
Do you get put to sleep during club thumb surgery or do you feel everything?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anesthesia: Options are being awake or delayed along with a local nerve block, or being fully asleep. Don't worry, while there may be some small things along the way that are uncomfortable, you won't feel the surgery. Hope this helps!
