Hi Cleo,
That is a very tricky and delicate surgery. How long was your post op recovery and when did you notice improvement?
Just for others reading this.... Neuromas are a mass of nerve fibers and they form during scar tissue formation or nerve rejuvenation. These masses can adhere themselves to injured, infected or traumatized nerves. It is a very risky surgery to try to remove them as they often have to be peeled off of whatever they are attached to which could result in permanent nerve damage, etc.
Cleo, I am glad that you are okay!

There used to be a lingual nerve and inferior alveolar nerve damage discussion forum that I was on for about 10 years. A huge amount of medical negligence as you must know...
