[|Human|] I have been suffering from carpel tunnel syndrome for more than 2 years and sometimes it becomes quite unbearable. What are the chances of getting rid of this syndrome if I have an operation done. A friend of mine in her late 70s had it done, but not successful, so had to go for the 2nd operation, and still the syndrome did not go away. But 2 years later she said the syndrome is gone. I am confused and do not know whether to go for the operation. I had an operation done for trigger finger on the middle finger on the same left hand, and it didn t turn out well. Now I cannot bend all my fingers on the left hand at the same time . Can you please advise what I should do? Will the carpel tunnel operation get rid of the syndrome and help with the problem of the fingers? I am about 70 years old.Thank you for any advice you can give.
