Injury to r foot 6m ago. disuse atrophy to lower leg. muscle twitching along inner aspect of foot, now up to inside of leg to calf. suggestions?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If the disuse: Is secondary to cast you may have nerve damage from the cast. I would recommend physical therapy. You must get that foot and leg moving. You may want to get a baseline EMG/NCV study and of course follow up with your doctor.
