Damage from Iovera Nerve block prior to TKR

I also had the Iovera treatment and did not have the TKR. I had the same terrible pain from the injection the day after and many days since. It has been almost a year and I am close to normal, still some numbness and soreness to the touch but daily activity is fine. I'm writing this hoping to encourage those that had the treatment. I am supposed to have TKR in September, 2025 but not too confident about that. I am trying to let go and let God.

It’s been over a year since I had the IOVERA and the surgery. I am still having nerve pain every day and still numb from mid calf to mid thigh. My knee itself is doing pretty good but I certainly could do without this constant nerve pain. I regret getting IOVERA big time. I refuse to take meds for it due to potential side effects so I just live with it.
