Bianca Belair was already trying to get her injured finger back to normal, and now both of her hands are giving her problems. She says her fingers are completely numb, she has no grip strength and she’s dealing with carpal tunnel in both hands.
On August 25, Bianca Belair took to her Instagram Stories and opened up about what she’s been dealing with after giving birth: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. Judging by her reaction, some of it caught her completely off guard.
“No one ever talks about …this stuff … currently carpal tunnel in both hands… fingers completely numb, no feeling in surgery finger whatsoever, no grip strengthm and now also Mom thumb… wtf lol.”
That’s a lot to deal with when one of those fingers was already trying to recover from surgery. Belair injured her finger at WrestleMania 41, and it eventually turned out to be much worse than initially expected. She had crushed the knuckle joint, underwent surgery and has been working to get movement back ever since.
There had actually been some good news along the way. While she was pregnant, Belair said the time away gave her a chance to really focus on physical therapy, and she was pretty excited when she finally started bending the finger again. That didn’t mean everything was suddenly fixed. A photo Belair shared in July still showed plenty of swelling around the finger along with visible marks from the surgery.
Now she can’t even feel it. Belair made it clear the surgically repaired finger currently has no feeling whatsoever, while the rest of her fingers are numb as well. Throw carpal tunnel in both hands, no grip strength and “Mom thumb” into the mix, and getting her hands back to normal has become a lot more complicated than simply waiting for one finger to heal.
Belair has already spent months trying to get that finger working properly again. Now she’s got both hands to worry about, and her “wtf lol” pretty much says everything about how that’s going.
