Is the pain in your foot in a specific area? I'm afraid that I may have to deal with a accepting this also. My ankle and foot were very swollen from tkr. After having tried everything short of surgery, I keep hoping to wake up to a change in sensation. It's hard to believe how much pain you can be in from sensation when waking on it. Thanks for responding.

Did I say I had pain? Sometimes there are electric flashes, but not often anymore. My foot is numb, though, definitely numb. Some sensation has come back over time, but I still get swelling, numbness, and tightness from the ankle down through my toes. I can move my toes , but not as well as before TKR. I am supposed to have this from my spinal stenosis as well but I don’t know what percentage I can attribute to this problem.
