How Can One Know Having Neurological Damage From Kidney Surgery?

IS THIS FREE? HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE NEUROLOGICAL DAMAGE FROM KNEE SURGERY. MY KNEE AND PART OF MY LEG GET NUMB. I DROP THINGS ALL THE TIME AND AM CLUMBSY AND I WASN T BEFORE. I AM PIGEON TOES ON MY RIGHT FOOT, HAVE CURVITURE OF THE SPINE , AND A BOWED LEG. THESE ARE ALL FROM MY KNEE NOT BEING RIGHT AFTER THE SURGERY FOR OVER 2 YEARS. MY PROBLEMS ALWAYS SEEM TO BE ON MY RIGHT SIDE, WHERE THE SURGERIES HAVE BEEN, JUST HAD A HIP REPLACEMENT ON THAT SIDE AS WELL.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
After the kidney operation the neurological problem is not likely or say common, if you feel such thing like weakness in upper or lower arms then the cause of this could be something else but it may not be because or renal surgery unless for surgery spinal anesthesia if ever given then that may some time causes neurological complication, hope this could be your answer, have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
