How Can Severe Pain From The Knees To The Ankle Be Treated?
I had a full knee replacement 3 months ago.I am in severe pain down back of my knee and into my ankle and under my foot.Doctor suspects nerve damag eand i am on Lyrica and keria anti inflamm tablets.Not much relief and wondering what other drugd would ease pain.My leg aches when waling or standing and I have very disturbed sleep.
I understand your concern and I am sorry that you are in pain. I see that you are already taking Lyrica which is a medication used to treat pain from damaged nerves.
I would also recommend anti-inflammatory medication such as oxycodone. It is a prescribed medication so you should consult your doctor before taking it.

Hello, I understand your concern and I am sorry that you are in pain. I see that you are already taking Lyrica which is a medication used to treat pain from damaged nerves. I would also recommend anti-inflammatory medication such as oxycodone. It is a prescribed medication so you should consult your doctor before taking it. You can also try over the counter medication such as Ibuprofen for relief. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
