What Is The Cause For Numbness In My Leg After Surgeries And Hysterectomies?
Hi, I have had many stents then kissing stents that then collapsed and they grafted my aortic, illiac and part of my femoral arteries. I then had blockage on the good side the rt the left has re-blocked and cannot be fixed. I was doing well on the rt side but about a month in I got blocked from the knee down % 50 now since yesterday my rt leg is going numb and is beginning to hurt, should I call a doctor or just wait it out till tomorrow.... I would like to add that I have had 48 surgeries many to my abdomen including hysterectomies etc... could the scar tissue be the cause, I also have Sceromyxedema if that helps
Numbness in the leg after surgeries could be due to the anesthetia. Especially spinal anesthetia. It looks like you have a significant medical history which has to be seen in detail in order to rule out other causes like peripheral nerve disease or a peripheral vascular disease. Please get back to me with the details.
I hope I was of help
Regards
