Yikes! Your surgeon really wrapped the heck out of that hand. That must've been a monster cyst !!
I underwent a similar procedure on Sept 29. Trigger thumb release & removal of a 1/2" cyst from that first thumb joint (on the palm side of my hand). I opted for a local anesthetic, and he sent me home with a few light wraps of flexible bandage.
I was playing again the next night. Yes, it hurt - but was a thousand times better than it was before the operation. I took the wraps off last night, and will cover the stitches with a band until the stitches come out on Oct 13. All my bruising is pretty much gone, so it's really just the cut and the stiches that I need to watch out for.
I expect it to be a couple months before I'm 100% again, but I already feel like I'm at 85% right now. As long as I don't lift anything too heavy or tear the stitches.
Compared to your hand, I feel pretty fortunate. Good luck on your recovery.
