I've been informed some patients got nerve damage after surgery (numbness, extreme pain, reduced mobility, spasmodic movements). Wonder if this could be prevented by a good surgical ability because they asked me for legal advice

Some patients got numbness in OR after surgery because they nerves were damaged. They still have numbness problems after years. Other patients had numbness when distracting. Those reported their numbness went away
