Carpal tunnel surgery ... about a 0.645 level event on a 1 to 10 scale - or as I told several people, I would far rather have that done than sit through the dentist drilling my tooth for a filling. The procedure is nothing ... the pain is minimal ... but a fall on it until it heals would be kinda bad.
In that case, go riding and don't tell the doc. If you bite it, lead with your head not your hands?
