...and Im fearful of my future!? I fell off the back of a 4-wheeler going 40 mph on my butt 4 months ago. I have developed in that time (according to the orthopedic surgeon) a cyst in my right wrist, carpal tunnel in both hands, AND a bulging disk in my c3. I am scheduled to have surgery on both hands the 15th of jan. But I have not been told anything about my back. By reading these articles I reallies my condition may be serious according to my symptoms ( nagging pain on right side of body, severe headaches, numbness of neck, shoulder, face, right arm, hand and fingers, losing grip in right hand. Don't even get me started on the pain I experience in all these areas, especially neck, shoulder, and, the headaches!) I am very concerned that carpal tunnel surgery is the wrong move, my neck seems very serious! I do not want to procrastinate have this problem for the rest of my life! Im only 25! PLEASE, anybody! Advice?
