Immediately following my total knee replacement and nearly four months since the surgery I have since experienced the following two symptoms:

1. Superficial (not deep) nagging nerve pain and inflammation on the outside of my foot and both side of my ankle
2. Stiffness and extreme tightening of my thigh muscle just above my knee and into the lower half of the thigh muscle (felt like it was shortened). This has slowing gone away with regular and continued stretching and physical therapy

What can be done to help my foot and ankle? Ibuprofen helps
