I was diagnosis with Saphenous neuritis. I have sharp pain and I feel numbness in my knee. I have attempted to work light duty. I stand all day on a fast pace job. I m in a lot of pain. Should I be standing for long period of time with this injury? Should I be working with this injury and pain?

Hello
I have studied your case. Usually nerve diseases are very painful and standing for long time can cause trouble. I would recommend you following.
1.Do not stand for long time.
2.Capsaicin ointment can be applied locally.
3.Hot water fomentation is also helpful.
4. Tablet Pregabalin M should be taken daily at night time.
5. Nerve block can also be tried.
I hope this answer will be useful for you. Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
thanks
