I have foot drop. I am taking physiotherapy session for the same. Physiotherapist said it?s peroneal nerve injury which has happened because I have sat cross legs for 4 hours on a drive. Foot drop movement has improved but I have acute terrible pain in foot have burning sensation and my index finger is completely stiffed. My physiotherapist. Says nerves are in regeneration mode and that is why it?s pains it?s normal and a good sign and within 2 weeks time I should be fine. I have already completed 4 weeks of my physiotherapy session. Is the physiotherapist giving m the right advice or should I consult a neurosurgeon because it hurts me a lot while walking or standing even for 2 mins. Medicines prescribed and changed ultracet course completed 5 days lyrica course completed now he advised to eat etoshine Mr. just started when will I recover from this pain only? Please advise.
