Left leg is significantly weaker.
« on: June 25, 2019, 12:06:16 PM »

I just did my surgery LON method yesterday and I tried standing up today without any help but I had to put all the pressure on my right leg. My left leg has very little pain tolerance every since I’ve done the surgery. I can also move my feet and my toes so that’s not an issue. my only source of pain is from my left leg. Any advice?

Usually it is just transient motor deficit from the nailing, or from the post operative edema. You should consult your doctor if it won't improve shortly.

Usually it is just permanent motor deficit from the nailing, or from the postoperative edema. You should consult your doctor if it won't improve shortly.

When I had my Stryde surgery, the left leg was much more sensitive to pain than my right leg.   Everything started to get better within a few weeks.

I meant transient, not permanent  ;D .
These motor, or sensory symptoms usually improve quite fast, but gradually (weeks mostly).

I honestly think it's very normal, just consistently train both legs and your strength will go up.

Can I ask how much you paid in USD in Iran?

I no longer have bad pain. It was because of a screw which is now fixed. The currency here in Iran is so unstable but I would estimate it cost around 10-12k$. I was considering doing a diary but there are non about Iran on this forum so I’m not sure if people would care.
