    Very early out of your surgery. Call your surgeons office and see what he can do for you. He/she must of given you pain meds that should take that feeling away. My surgeon was very specific and told me to take the pain meds., a lot of people don't want to , but its a huge surgery and you should be making yourself comfortable.

    This could be due to nerve damage. My foot and toes were all tingly like pins and needles. Doc said I had nerve damage which went all the way from the base of my foot to my toes. Takes time to heal.

    My Doc recommended CBD oil and it has done wonders for me.

    Being the sensation is in your leg, could be other issues. Talk to your doc just to be sure.
