If you feel safely and permanently employed (or maybe even if not), talk to your employer about this. They may make an accommodation for your temporary disability. If there's no reasonable accommodation, do you have short-term disability insurance, perhaps as an employee benefit?
Maybe you deliver at a quarter of normal velocity for weeks, or maybe you're assigned to tasks which involve more reading. If you're usually productive and never deliver late, you are out of practice at failing well, so I'd concentrate on the communications around that. Surprises are bad, earlier communication is better.
Done well, "how does my team cope with me being unable to type" will probably be a healthier journey than "I stand alone, how do I push myself to achieve as though I'm uninjured?"
