Patella Surgery knee numb still after all these years!1
 

Did anyone have a broken Patella and have surgery on it and still have numbness in their knee?? I think part of my Rsd is a nerve being damaged as a result from surgery>> Am I just crazy or is this normal to have no feeling in your leg from this type of surgery??:cool:

I am sorry but can't remember cause I think you hav stated your feet are numb too sometimes? Please correct me if I am wrong. Anyhow have you had an emg/nc? I ask because I have PN but also RSD.

Daniella, I have nad the numbness in my left knee since 2006 after my knee surgeries, but the numbness in the feet just the last 2 months.. Dx'd with Rsd in right foot sep 2008..

Hi
Ihad had 3 knee surgerys in 2003 on the same knee{basketball],,,part of my knee stayed numb for a while,,the dr was up front with that,,he had to cut around alot of nerves to get the job done,,i had mine aurthoscopically done,,less evasive,,,anyway ,,its been 6 years and no more numbness,it took acouple of years to get it all back,,,,good luck and talk to your oropedic dr and see whats he says,,,,,,,,,,,,,bobber

Still with the feet numbness that is why I was asking. You could and you may not so this is a guess but have more then one condition going on. Like rsd plus ? Bobber is right that it can take a long time for nerves to heal. That is something I have learned on the PN board. Many have for ex b12 deficiency and when they repair that they begin to heal but it is a slow process
