I had a bad experience with my ND IE: Bleeding , lymphedema , fibrosis , trisimus (lock jaw cant spell the less scary term), pain ,loss of motion, disfigurement. Now I don't want to scare anyone. But just wanted to point out that while a lot of people have little complications with their ND, There are a few of us who had bad outcomes. Know your surgeons track record. Don't be afraid to ask hard questions or get second opinions. Know exactly what he/she intends to do. read all of the possible complications. associated with the surgery. Shawn U.
