Hello,
I don't know if you meant to post on the RSD page for your issues....
However, I can say from having a swollen foot pre and post-op that the MN area nerve does not like pressure and can give an electrical feeling even in a swollen foot without MN. I experienced that sensation when I had a lot of swelling and found it worse at night and first thing AM. I think it may have to do with hemostasis changes that occur when we lay down at night. Many people find neuropathy symptoms worsen at night for this reason. Anything that addresses swelling, cool pack (not ice), elevation, Epsom salt baths for the foot as well as offloading by making a little cut out in your shoe insert may be helpful. Feel better soon,
