Have Stiffness In Leg To Toes. Had Spinal Cord Surgery. Medical Cure Fro This?

Yes, I have a stiffness in my leg and all the way down to my foot and toes..it's also on my right foot, but more on my left. It's not painful, just more like loss of muscles in my leg and feet.
I had spinal cord surgery last year around October. But this just came out of no where and I have appt with neurologist on Monday 11/18. Just looking for answers and hoping to get it better so I can at least walk.

Hi
As you have had surgery done, i think it takes at least 6 to 12 months to get fully recover. But as much of the information is not written as for what you were operated. I think you need a calcium and vitamin supplements along with different types of physiotherapy fo back and lower limb.
Make sure you are not sufering from varicose veins.
Get well soon.
Thank you.
