With the wife's help I cut my stitches out last Friday and went for a follow up appt yesterday. On day 19: Still a good bit of soreness running 1/2 way down my forearm. Barely some soreness from the Carpal tunnel but a lot from the Ulnar tunnel. Feels like some wrist movement limitations from the carpal (just real tight). Incisions seemed to heal pretty well. He gave me a cortisone shot to help speed it up but says give it 2 more weeks and see how it does. Thumb is still numb. I am able to get back In the weight room doing selective things. This week will tell a lot. I have had to drop to some lighter weight on a few exercises but I'm just happy to be back lifting. As of Today if you asked if I'm ready to do the left arm it would be a heck no! It's gonna have to get worse before I consider it.
P.S. And yes Skinny the play dough woulda helped.

I hope it eases up soon. I did a quick Amazon search and they sell bunches of different kinds of Exercise Putty for hand PT, cheap. https://www.amazon.com/Exercise-Putty/b?node=3776561

Damn skinny loves some putty. My birthday was Thursday you should buy me some. LOL just busting your chops. I do have one of my daughters Knead O balls or whatever the youngsters call a "squishy" I do think it has helped. It feels like Putty
