Title: Crushed Ulna Nerve - anyone?
Post by: bigOz on 17/08/2006 09:22:21

Has anyone had a crushed ulna nerve and had it cured by operation? If so, please let me know when and where.

I suffer from one in my right arm, I had an operation 1 1/2 years ago but it was only 50% success. I need to know what I can do next.

Sometimes it takes time to repair delicate parts like nerves.
Recover may be slow and never complete, depending on the damage.
What did your doctors tell you about it?
Who fixed it months ago should know better than everybody else how  your arm is doing.
You may look for a second opinion in some place where highly specialized neurosurgeons and orthopedics work close together with maximum results. May be it's where you had been treated.
Take care.
