Has anyone been dx or had surgery for Common peroneal or Deep peroneal nerve compression?
The C. Peroneal nerve is located on the outside of the knee near fibula bone which causes
Pain, burning, tightness, soreness., numbness in this area n also down lower leg to outside ankle. Deep peroneal n. causes pain n weakness in front of the ankle joint.
the Superficial peroneal n causes numbness in front lower leg n foot to two 1st toes.
Wondering which Dr orthopeadic or neurosurgeon does more of these surgeries? My pain n numbness in these areas are getting worse n all I do for ex is just try to walk 1/2 to 1 mile every other day. Increased neurotin to 3x day and still getting worse!
Any advice??
