I had a my right knee replaced on November 11th 2020. I woke up from the surgery with the toes on my right foot freezing all except my big toe. So the knee hurts but my toes and my foot swell and give me all types of pains. I have had a nerve test and they said it is normal. I am in so much pain I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any suggestions. I am taking 2 nerve meds, 1 muscle relaxer 500mg of Tylenol and its not helping.

I talked to my primary care about and he is requesting copies of everything for my file. I am supposed to see him on the 8th but I think I am going to request to see him sooner and ask for a doppler just to be sure there is no blood clots as well. This is my 3rd one and I have never had a problem with my foot. The surgeon said everything is in order and he said when they can't find out what is causing it they blame neurology. So they did an EMG and said it was normal but something they did made my toes stop tingling for a moment it came back with a vengeance. some times I can't put shoes or socks on. Once I settle down for the night it starts to contract and hurt so bad it's stays so sensitive that I can barely keep a sheet on it. Today is the first day that it has made me cry. cause I am stuck be tween the rock and the hard place.
