I had a spinal cord injury some years back like (6) and ever since I have what I always thjought was nerve pain from my groin down to my ankle on the right side. At one time I had drop foot. Now it feels as though the muscles in my right leg have weakened to the mushy state compared to the left leg. How can I strengthen them? The leg wants to give out at times either at the ankle or the knee.
Hi, Welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  It may be due to the post-operative state, or by its own. There could be compression of the motor nerves on the front of the groin.  I advise you to consult an orthopedic surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have an M.R.I. for confirmation.  I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotrophic injections for 10 consecutive days, and then periodically. Ofloxacin metonymic acid, and paracetamol for ten days when ever there is more pain.  Avoid taking potato, other tubers, tomato, egg, chicken, and seafoods till you get complete relief.  Take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to hasten the recovery.  Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
