Any advice for nerve damage?

on october 17 I had a really invasive surgery to remove a tumor the size of a baseball from the area behind my right sholder blade. I woke up from this long scary process and my hand was swollen up and I couldnt move any of my fingers. now, two and a half months later, I have all the feeling back in my first three fingers and the left side of my ring finger. as for the right side of my ring finger and my pinky I have seen improvement but very very slowly. has anyone experienced nerve damage like this, got any good advice? :]

Answer #1

Thankful your surgery was successful - looks like just a matter of time…Take good care !!

Answer #2

Nerve take a long time to heal. . When you had the swelling it probably damaged the Nerve. . . It should come back with time. . . I’ve experienced nerve damage and it just takes time. . .
