On March 10th I had hip replacement. My leg and foot have been numb ever since. the toes on my foot curle under and make it very hard to walk. When I ask my doctor about it he said Sometimes this happens. I m sorry. Not a very satisfying answer. Any suggestions? Thank you.
Hello, I have studied your case and I think that there is stretch of sciatic nerve in hip joint. This can happen during surgery, and it is very common. Most of the time it improves with time so no need to be worried about this. I would suggest you to take Pregabalin M tablet at nighttime. It will help in stretching in nerves.  If there is continuous pressure then you can get EMG/NCV of the affected limb to confirm the diagnosis. I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions. Thanks
