I had carpal tunnel surgery on my right hand almost three years ago. Since then my right hand is weaker. It is extremely hard for me to open jars or really unscrew anything. If B puts a lid on S’s cups there is no chance of me getting it off. I always wondered how I could get some strength back into my hand.
Fast forward two years (about nine months ago) and I had carpal tunnel surgery on my left hand. Now with both hands weak I have to figure out if a jar needs opened before B leaves for work or we can’t have it for dinner. If we want pasta and sauce I have to know that and make sure B opens it for me. There is the rare occasion where I can open a jar myself, but it takes quite a while. There is a lot of tap the jar lid on the floor, and using towels to get a good grip on the lid.
How in the world am I going to be able to get strength back in my hands? When given the opportunity to review the Adjustable Hand Grip Strengthener, I knew I had to try it.
The Adjustable Hand Grip Strengthener can go from 22-70 lbs. I, of course, started on the easiest level which was actually really hard for me. Thinking it might be the strengthener and not me I had B try it. Nope, it is me. He had no problem just squeezing that thing. I keep it in the drawer next to the couch in the living room. I figured if I kept it where it is accessible I could grab it and use it when I am watching TV.
I have been using it a couple a times a week and have been able to adjust it slightly. My hands are gaining strength little by little. I am hoping that if I continue to use the strengthener I will have no problem opening jars on my own.
