What Causes Intermittent Severe Pain In The Left Leg After Treating Ruptured And Separated Achilles?

In 2017 I suffered a ruptured and separated achilles in left leg. Surgically repaired. Six months later had expected right total knee replacement. Recovered Ok- lots of PT. Two months ago I felt pain in my left leg- sometimes severe. One month ago I awoke and could not walk or put any weight on left leg. Went to ER to rule our blook clot. Went to ortho MD. Had Bakers cyst. Got cortisone shot. Have continued to have discomfort but not severe. Today- cannot walk again. Same severe pain that I had one month ago. Not sure what to do next. It almost feels like my achilles pain before surgery. Thank you.
