Re: Radial Nerve

hi..we are in the same boat. i just had surgery for this same thing on thursday. it was not bad at all. still recovering. don't know if i'll be doing physical therapy or not yet. if you can get it fixed...do it. the surgery is a snap.

Re: Radial Nerve

Kauai,

I am on my second pinched radial nerve. The first one healed in 3 months, so DON'T PANIC. My nuerologist said it takes a month to heal one {1} inch of a pinched nerve.

In the mean time, buy AND wear a ****** brand wrist brace {with the metal splint inserted}, this will allow you to accomplish just about any task {except maybe writing}. I know it's a pain, but it will heal on it's own, dont waste money on doctors, I've tried them all, nothing works {accupunture, MD, therapy, steroids and cortisone, Nuerologist, etc.}

The 1 thing YOU CAN DO to speed up the process is take a large dose of Vitamin B-150 daily, with OR after a meal. Trust me, it will heal, just remember that the wrist is very sensitive & delicate, and has a lot of nerves, tendons, etc., running THROUGH IT.

I injured mine BOTH TIMES by falling asleep with my wrist on my keyboard, and my head on my wrist, so BE CAREFUL, don't be stupid like me!

Good Luck / Joseph
