Welcome to Connect, @cmartz.
According to this study, one of the major causes of pain after arthroscopic knee surgery is nerve entrapment or nerve compression. Some typical examples are: pain in the ball of the foot after neuroma surgery or pain radiating down the leg to the foot after knee surgery, or persistent heel pain even after plantar fascia surgery. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5672866/

I’d like to bring @ellerbracke @anniebrook @grandmar @lynnwade54 @santi into this discussion, as they might be able to offer their thoughts about the foot pain.You may also be interested in reading this discussion:

Although this discussion is titled, "scar tissue after knee replacement” https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/scar-tissue-after-knee-replacement/ there are many fellow members – @rayreich3 @dickiedo @amywood20 and many others – whose experiences might also provide some insight into the pain you are experiencing.

What does your doctor say, @cmartz? How are you managing the pain at present?
