Morton Neuroma Surgery

Zero problems walking. Tops & bottoms have sensation. I was walking (just not far–just to the bathroom and a bit around the house) the next day.

Honestly I can’t remember how long it took for the soreness to go away after surgery. It’s been a decade since the most recent surgery. A few days to a week, maybe? But the pain was from the incision. The pain from the neuroma was gone right away.

Yes, the residual numbness after you get novocaine at the dentist pretty well describe the sensation. But you don’t get that buzzy, prickly feeling as sensation starts to return afterward. It just stays numb. No tingling. No feeling like the tissues are swollen or don’t function correctly like I get after local dental anesthestic. You can press firmly on the numb spot and feel pressure, but lightly rubbing your finger over the numb spot just feels…weird. Like you know something is happening but you can’t quite tell what.
