I had an ankle arthroscopy with microfraction 5 weeks ago. I started to put weight on it today with most of my weight being held up with the use of crutches. However, when my foot comes in contact with the floor, I get the pins and needles sensation through my foot. Is this normal? Or should I contact my doctor?
Helots is not normal you should consult your doctor. Wax bath physiotherapy will help for early recovery. Hy Chat Doctor. You may have good relief with physiotherapy like IT [Inferential therapy] and TENS[Transcutaneous electrostimulation] along with ultrasound. So if possible you can start that. You may need methylcobalamin supplement. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
