How long does numbness take to go away?
« on: April 09, 2023, 03:24:01 PM »

So after my LON frame removal, I got a completely numb sole but had movement without an issue
6 months later, now when i touch it, I feel altered sensation like i'm aware something is touching it but don't know what exactly.
It's still numb tho, but before i wouldn't feel anything.
How long is it gonna take for the numbness to go away or get better?
it definitely is better now but yea

Presumably another 6 months or slightly longer. It'll likely improve over time. Especially with the implementation of novel pharmaceuticals. Feel free to dm for some recommendations.
