This depends on the severity of the nerve damage. Nerves grow or regrow about an inch a month. If you require any more assistance or help in recovering please check out my website where you can make an appointment with me. Best to you, Dr. Ruth
It's all depended on how long and how severely the nerve was damaged and also depended on how successfully done and your own healing power which is related to your age, nutritional status, and general health condition. If some of the nerve fibers were permanently damaged prior to surgery. the recovery may not be complete. In general, few months is required to see improvements.
Hello, you should ask your surgeon prior to the surgery. Based on the specific nerve, the severity of nerve injury, and intra-operative findings during the surgery, these are all factors in recovery. Good luck my friend.
It will depend on severity of the nerve damages . It will be different from injury to injury .

It depends on the actual damage. Sometimes nerve damage can be permanent…or it could recover in a few weeks.
