Have A Cut On Bottom Of Foot, Got Eight Stitches. Have I Cut My Muscle?
Hi,
Over the weekend I stepped on a wine glass and it cut the bottom of my foot. I had to get 8 stitches, and I feeling on the inside pad of my left foot and bottom of my big toe. I can still move it slowly but cannot feel it on the surface. The doctor said I may have cut a bit of the muscle and said most feeling should come back eventually. I'm wondering if the feeling will come back eventually, and also will it affect my ability to walk, and play sports.
