My spouse had terrible carpal tunnel and cubital tunnel problems. He had endoscopic surgery, which has a quicker recovery and I understand better long term success than open surgery. We had to drive 150 miles to the surgery (we went to a specialist that only does this stuff ) and went there and back the same day. I just had to do the driving. He has recovered but has permanent damage due to long delay in seeking surgery. At least his condition did not continue to get worse. I think one key is not going back to riding until you are entirely recovered from the surgery. I don't know what your recovery period would be but don't push it and go back to riding before you doctor give the ok.
This is a good article: http://www.ninds.nih.gov/disorders/c...pal_tunnel.htm Recurance is rare.
