I am suffering from a very, very, very strong pain in my both ankles due to an open hearthoperation and veins were detached from my legs and most probably the surgeon spoiledmy nerves and tendons from my legs and now the pain is so intense that I cannot sleepa second during the night I am taking Tylenol but that is completely useless.What do you think I can do to solve this terrible problem that makes me feel thatit is better to take my life away?
Hi, damage to the superficial nerves that carry sensation during removal of veins can cause such symptoms, but they usually settle with time, the most useful part is to get TENS which will quieten the nerves, desensitization and finally neuroma excision are the treatment of choice.
