My left hand went numb.  From the tips of my ring and little finger to the back of my left hand.  The Neurosurgeon said the I needed a neck operation. C5-C6, C6-C7, and C7-T1 needed to be fixed.  Still have numbness 2 mo. post-op.  All he can say is it can take a year for numbness to go away. I'm on Zanez for anxiety but it helps very little.  What can I do?

Hello Dear,
What is your age?Do you have diabetes or hypertension?You should monitor these levels.Also consult a physiotherapist for pain management.Also you can try alternative therapies like homoeopathy.You can also take vitaminB supplements.You should also go in for a second opinion as your symptoms relate to nervous system.
