Foot neuropathy (numbness and pain) after total knee replacement (TKR)

Today marks 3 months since TKR, surgeon said I would be playing golf in three months, yes the knee came along (with much pain) and is good enough to use as normal, BUT he never said anything about nerve damage, bottom of my foot is as numb as it was the night of the operation! Some people say it takes a year to go away? any input? Just hope some day it fades away.

Bottom of my foot still numb 11months after TKR. I guess we can only keep hoping the feeling will someday return.

Hi my name is Sandie and I had my right knee done a year ago as of May 21 and I still have the neuropathy in my foot that I had the night I woke up from surgery. I’m sorry for what you’re going through because I’m still going through it. My doctor said it would go away also however it has not been on top of that I developed sciatica the same time I got the neuropathy right after surgery. Still fighting it but I don’t think it’s going to get better after gabapentin, pain meds, ibuprofen,And meloxicam nothings changed.
