I am not asking for medical advice, just wondering about other people recovery from thumb surgery. Arthritis and abuse blew out my thumbs.

I had CMC arthroplasty on my right hand plus a repair of Dupuytren’s contracture of my pinky. It seems that it will take months of recovery. Does anyone have experience with similar surgery? What was your timetable for return?
