Have had thumb surgery LMRI I think is what they called it where they remove one of the bones and pack tendons to fill space and to relieive the pain?? So after surgery has healed am having severe pains in my hand up my thumb between thumb and hand and in inside of thumb shooting up through from my palm or wirst region. Is this a common thing associated with this surgery.. And if so what if any things can cause or give relief .. I need to get back to work and am having difficulty dealing with the constant pain associated with my thumb.. If any one can send me info or have solutions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks, Chris
