Thank you for responding, Dr. Corenman –
Just two more quick things:
1. Is it possible that I had the weakness prior to surgery and was simply in too much pain (it was pretty awful) to notice? I was happy just to be walking most days, let alone making a concerted effort to push off in any way.
2. If indeed my nerve suffered a traction injury during surgery, is this something big that can heal over time and can re-strengthen with PT?
