<human>: I had an ankle arthroscopy with microfraction 5 weeks ago. I started to put weight on it today with most of my weight being held up with the use of crutches. However, when my foot comes in contact with the floor, I get the pins and needles sensation through my foot. Is this normal? Or should I contact my doctor?
<bot>: Helots is not normal you should consult your doctor. Wax bath physiotherapy will help for early recovery. Hy Chat Doctor. You may have good relief with physiotherapy like IT [Inferential therapy] and TENS[Transcutaneous electrostimulation] along with ultrasound. So if possible you can start that. You may need methylcobalamin supplement. Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow-up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
