Carpel tunnel surgery

Question

Asked for Female, 28 Years

I'm choosing to get endoscopic carpal tunnel release instead of the other one. I am a nanny and there's no way that I can not lift more then 11 lbs. The kid is almost 20 lbs.. I'm only getting my left one done for now. Since I'm only getting the one hand done am I still able to perform my job functions as long as I do most of the lifting with my opposite hand?
