Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
The numbness and swelling in the vaginal area is not likely to be related to the knee joint replacement. It is more likely to be due to nerve root compression at the level of spine.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
