I had liposuction of my inner theighs 6 days ago. I am not wearing a compression garment or bandages. On my right leg only I have pain & my foot is dead. My whole leg feels as though I have pins & needles. Could I have nerve damage? Or is this something that generally goes away given healing time? Thanks heaps! :)
