Anyone experience total loss of function & nerve damage post THR?

@clange921 Can you tell us a little more about yourself and the surgery?
At what point did the loss of use begin? Do you have other conditions like neuropathy or peripheral artery disease that may be contributing to the problem?

I was sent home after my surgery without movement or feeling but once anesthesia wore off, I experienced excruciating pain.
I have neuropathy post surgery and drop foot but no PAD . I wish I would have been informed prior to THR that this was a common complication.
Anyway, any advice for the frozen foot ? Literally very cold . I wear electric socks to compensate .
It’s been 18 months .
