I am 66, male, suffered a ligament tear in 2014 and cellulitis in on my right leg during 2016. Even though necessary treatment's were taken, I feel my right leg has become very sensitive. An orthopaedic surgeon after ascertaining I am not diabetic said it could be vitamin deficiency. Though I have been talking vitamins yet after continuous standing of 20/25 minutes, my leg starts paining in knee and nearby.

I believe proprioceptive rehabilitation is not done for you. Kindly undergo proper therapy and pain will vanish I 5 weeks and stability will return back. As you are non diabetic nothing should stop you from recovery.
