View Full Version : How Soon Can I Start Driving

Hello Everyone

Could anyone let me know when it is safe for me to start trying to drive again? I had bilateral carpal release ten days ago, but just had stitches out today. The wounds have healed well with no infection, but I don't want to split them open and I'm not sure how much pressure I can put on my hands? I need to start driving asap as I need it for work, though I don't want to take any unneccessary risks either?

Any feedback would be most welcome.

Regards

Julie

Well I got sick of waiting so I have been doing a small drive for the last few days - from about 10 days post op. I'm building it up slowly and it seems okay!

:wave: I went back to work after 3 weeks and drive all the time now.
