Hi,
I am looking at an operation to reconstruct my thumb ucl. I believe it will be done by tendon graft using my palm. Longus.
couple of questions.
1. Can one go back to heavy lifting after a successful surgery and rehab protocol. Meaning, can the thumb be just as strong. I am a not so strong 53 yo man. I do not compete.
2. when I am done w the surgery, is this something I could use a bbm Consult for?
thanks for any help.
