A member asked:
Does opll of your cervical cause ulnar and median nerve damage? they want to move my ulnar nerve and open up my carpal tunnel after my neck surgery due to severe neuropathy in all three areas. is this to much surgery? i do have significant atrophy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Do not have enough information to even comment on causation. The question of ulnar nerve transfer and carpal tunnel decompression could be objectified by an EMG/ NCS study, and a second opinion from a hand surgeon of be of great value.
