@kristinatmc Hello!
I’m in Illinois so that’s where I had surgery. How I found him was by ZocDoc. Honestly, (almost) a year later I feel like I can do everything I can again! Personally, I first had to do physical therapy, then I had to get this steroid injection (which felt strange) and when none of that was working he got concerned to which I had to surgery to decompress my nerves. He said it’s always better to do it sooner rather than when it is really bad. I had tarsal tunnel+perineal nerve release. I waited a VERY long time (started having issues at 15/16) I have mild (bordering on moderate) loss of feeling in my leg.

@whimsicallyinpain I have been experiencing similar pain (extreme burning sensation) over top an incision scar that is over 25 years old but has needed to be reopened during additional needed surgeries from a really bad break that also became infected with MRSA. Anyway, I have been battling this burning, and sometimes itching, sensation for about 2 years on and off; and for the last 4 or 5 months all of the time; worse at night. I have undergone PT and have strengthened the actual ankle but the burning is still unbearable and my therapist said it is nerve damage, either from the ankle injury itself, or my lower back which is in bad shape also. I have a nerve conductivity test scheduled for the 20th of January for my back and I am hoping they can at least pinpoint where this problem with the ankle is originating from. This post I will save because all of the information checks all of the boxes of what I am going through. Thank you so much!
