I wonder if that shit even works.

Both procedures are carpal releases. You're crazy if you didn't go with the endoscopic procedure.
Elbow pain isn't part of CTS. You may need a cubital tunnel release as well if your pain is near your "funny bone."
This is caused by resting your arm on the armrest or window when driving.

Mine was endo. Two holes below the palm.

[davbrucas]

One in middle of palm and one just proximal to the wrist. There has to be an incision on either side of the carpal transverse ligament in order to effectively decompress the median nerve by cutting this ligament.

I concur Dr.

One hole for the scope, one for the cutting tool

So what's the different in what Don had done, and this damn Brown Hand Procedure that I always see on TV?

Not much... Brown goes thru the palm for the scope part and claims no stitches. Mine scoped from the wrist. My bandages are just to protect the site from impact, they all come off Tuesday. My recovery times are identical to Brown Proceedure, I just have 3 stitches at the site to remove.

As a mechanic and computer tech I am afraid I will need this surgery before I am 25.

Seeing your sister slap your "bad" wrist on accident was the funniest shit i've seen in a long time...
