It is necessary for your bandage to be large and bulky to provide protection and support for your wrist.
You will have less discomfort in the hand if you do not allow it to hang down at your side for the first few days after surgery. When walking, keep your arm up in front of your stomach. When sitting, keep your arm propped up on a pillow.
Do not allow your bandage to get wet. If it does, please contact our office.
Non-prescription pain medication should suffice for your post-operative pain. If not, please contact our office.
The day after your surgery, please call our office to make a follow-up appointment with our medical assistant / nurse to have your bandage changed and the incision inspected.
If you have any questions or concerns, please call our office.
