I am not good about listening to doctors so I understand this man, when his pain is unbearable, he will have it done.

I need surgery on my hand, I know it, but I keep putting it off because if I do not use it, it does not hurt, if it starts hurting when I am not using it I will need to think about it.

You have been very busy caring for people don't forget to care for yourself, you seem tired. I hope you have not caught something from someone I do not understand how doctors stay so healthy with the amount of people they see each day.

Think about the risk-benefit ratio. If doing surgery is more beneficial in the long run, go for it. Don't make it worse by not going for the proper management.

Your guess is correct. I do catch something sometimes. Alhamdulillah, nothing serious so far.

Thank you very much.

Surgery scares me because of being put under, I worry if I will wake from it and the thought of them taking 3 bones out of my hand turns my stomach. I know my quality of life will be better after the healing but he told me it will be a year before I am happy with it and that worries me. I know I need to do it BUT>>>>I am scared>>>>>.

I have heard that taking a zinc tablet every day will help from getting sick. I do not know if that is true, also I had a doctor who I liked going to tell me to put Neosporin, the triple antibiotic, on a Q-Tip and rub it on the inside of your nose to keep from getting sick. He said that is all he uses it for. I hope you can stay healthy through this flu season.

Every Surgery has a risk. For hand surgery, will they put you under? or they will give the regional block only?

Zinc has some immune booster effects. It may help!

I thought they would put me under but now I am not sure, I would rather have the regional block.
