Brief Answer:
Unlikely due to cesarian operation

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Greetings
Very unusual to have loss of sensation in one leg after cesarian operation.
Was she having any venous problem before?
was it an emergency operation after prolonged trial of labour?
If it is improving she can continue it else please discuss with your obstetrician at the earliest.
Feel free to ask your doubts with more details.
Regards
