I agree, my curosity is because in the uk, potential entrapment is ignored and instead they attempt to mask the symptoms, which ultimately always fails for obvious reasons.Violet M wrote: ↑Sat Mar 28, 2026 9:36 pm That’s a good question, eraser. One reason I decided on decompression surgery was to give the nerve a chance to heal if it was compressed rather than just treating the symptoms. But I think it’s important to be certain you meet the criteria for nerve entrapment, although that’s tricky to determine sometimes.
