Median Nerve Repair

Median nerve repair is a surgical procedure aimed at fixing damage to the median nerve, which runs down the arm and into the hand. This nerve is crucial for feeling in the thumb, index, and middle fingers, as well as for hand movements. Damage can occur due to injury, trauma, or conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome. During the repair, the surgeon reconnects the nerve endings or removes any obstacles affecting the nerve's function. Recovery can involve therapy to regain strength and sensation, aiming to restore normal hand function and reduce pain or numbness.
