A member asked:
Can acl reconstruction screw up a nerve that causes foot pain? oct 2013 i had it done and i still get really painful sensations in the foot sometimes
A doctor has provided 1 answer
ACL Surgery: It is unlikely that your intermittent foot pain has been caused by ACL reconstruction in 2013. If a nerve was damaged at the time of surgery, the symptoms would be continuous, not intermittent. Some patients can develop a condition called chronic regional pain syndrome (CRPS) after lower extremity surgery. It is more common in females with lower extremity trauma.
