Our stories are very similar , without going into a long story my ? is has your doctor spoke of nerve damage.There is a condition called CRPS , not saying you have it , but worth looking into. It really needs to be treated between 3mons & 6mons . post surgery or like me you may be stuck with it. Pain and swelling are just 2 of it;s symptoms. Mine is a long story with you wish i could message you, I am now 3yrs post op and a top nerve doctor at UPENN Hospital told me that if I had been treated 3-6 mons there would have been a good chance I would be fine but my doctor just kept saying ' GIVE IT MORE TIME" 'SORRY THERE IS NOTHING ELSE I CAN DO FOR YOU" As I have done keep the faith and keep searching best of luck Like I said if you would like more info message me
Hi @ezas123,
You'll see I moved your post to a similar discussion. I want you to connect with people who have been there with pain after surgery and no where else to go. How frustrating to not have the answer to rid yourself of the pain!
