A member asked:
Tarsal tunnel & gastrocneius surgery 2 weeks ago. dr said nerve was completly wrapped around tendon & wont know what's permanent until 6mo my chances?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be patient: If this has been a long standing issue, full recovery to the nerve can take quite a while! Be patient and give the postop course time. Stay compliant with your followup care. Good luck!
