Hiya im new to this so was wondering if anyone can help as im abit worried! I had ankle ligament reconstruction a week ago. I havent got a cast just surgical plasters as it was key hole surgery. I have an aweful almost burning and tingerling and kind of numbing feeling on the front of my foot and toes. Its so sore to touch. Even a blanket brushing against it is uncomfy and every now n then i get aweful shooting pain there aswell. Is this normal? Please help :-(:-(:'(

Hi
I had this after mine, was a very long two weeks but when I had the stitches taken out I was told perfectly normal. Numbness went aroundc4 weeks. Still get tingling & burning if I have overdone it and I'm 10 weeks post op. Just keep wiggling those toes where possible

I had the brostrom procedure to repair ligaments and had a lot of tingling afterward. I didn't experience any burning or numbness. Anything that put any pressure on the foot hurt, like the blanket pushing the foot to one side. It was difficult to find a position on a pillow that was comfortable. Do you have pain meds? Check with your surgeon to see if these symptoms are expected.
