Most of my pain post op was in the popliteal area which means the nerve that innervates the heel and sole was affected. I originally thought it was due to the femoral block, but as my nephew explained to me that is all anterior. Because my pain was popliteal (behind the knee) that isolated the nerve. the whole bottom of my foot is in varying degrees of numbness and tingling, feels like i'm walking on rocks, keeps me awake at night. This part really sucks and did not bargain for this.
The other thing is, why do i have to get this info from my nephew instead of my surgeon who just said, I've had 3 cases like this and it could take 1-3 months to improve without any explaination....
