I had ulnar nerve relocation and carpal tunnel release surgery last Friday. I must be lucky because I haven't had any pain either from the surgery or the problems before surgery. I have had some pretty intense burning in my elbow, other than the burning, I don't have much feeling in my elbow or fingers.
Lots of bruising, it still hurts like hell to grip anything. I got my cast off 4 days after surgery and I'm wearing a soft compression cast. No stitches either, they glued up my wrist and elbow. Only problem was that the glue wore off on the top part of my wrist and opened back up again. Doc just rubbed some bacitracin on it and slapped a bandaid on it and told me to not get it wet.
