Hi, I have avulsed c6&7, with no nerve root showing. Wondering has anyone had surgery for this type of injury, and how successful tje surgery has been?
I have good use of my hand, no biceps or outwards rotation, sorta can use shoukder a bit (improving). I'm not keen on surgery but am checking out all options.....

Thanks. Kia kaha,

You got nothing to loose, give it a go. Mine were not avulsed but cut and stretched but my shoulder went from hardly anything to 100%, my bicep went from nothing to a weak grade 4. Nothing below elbow but haven got that far yet but it will be next.

Mayo clinic likes surgery under the six month mark. Check into it sooner rather than later!

Note that an avulsion won't heal naturally, no way. Time is of the essence if you decide to pursue surgery.
