What Causes Tingling Sensation In Foot And Buttocks Post Metatarsal Fracture Repair?
I had a metatarsal fracture and had surgery about 6 weeks ago. Wearing a boot, my foot, calf, leg, buttocks, stomach on the left side is numb and tingly. Feels like a cement block all the way up. Do I need to be concerned? Been this way for 2 days. Doing a lot of sitting, minimal walking.
