I hope you are seeing less pain and swelling each day.

When sitting I often used a large gel wrap around the entire wrist and forearm, secured with a velcro wrap. Also, I was most comfortable when I continued to ice for several weeks, especially after daily therapy.

Hi and thanks for your comment. On post op day seven and now down to 2 ES Tylenol/day (1 in AM and 1 in PM). I have a similar icing routine to what you described and it is very helpful with the swelling. I see the surgeon on Monday so will post when I get the scoop on what went wrong with the Stabylx implant.
