<bot>: Hello, Thanks for writing to us, I have read your query:If after long duration of nerve repair surgery if there is no progress then you may need other operation like tendon transfer with in 3 yrs of injury. Vitamin B12 is important in the maintenance of health and normal functioning of the nerve tissue and deficiency of it can lead to numbness. You can increase B12 level by taking meat and fish, or you can take In methylcobalamine. Physiotherapy will help to maintain range of motion of joints. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care
