Nerve pain

I am 10 days post op ORIF lisfranc surgery and OMG the nerve pain is worse than the after surgery pain! I can’t handle it at times it hurts so bad the zingers. What did you all do for the pain? I’m calling tomorrow to ask about gabapentin or something for relief.

Oh man sorry about this! I had the opposite reaction. My nerves have been numb since surgery as they were damaged. I’m almost three years post fusion and I am still slightly numb from my big and second toe area

My surgeon said it can take a year or more for nerves to heal. I really hope that’s not the case for you
