you must have go for physiotherapy treatment. ultrasound therapy, transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, will help you. these all modalities are non surgical and give you beneficial effect. also do some hand exercises I think these will help you also go for EMG and NCV test. daily hand and finger muscle exercise to prevent weakness of muscle . thank you.
