What Do Numbness In Foot After Rhinoplasty Surgery Indicate?

Hi there. I had a rhinoplasty this morning under general anesthesia. Surgery went great, but as soon as I woke up my left foot felt like it was asleep. I assumed that was normal and the anesthesia was still wearing off, but tonight there is still no change. My foot feels numb and tingly. Is this normal after general anesthesia? I have never had this happen before

I dont think this is related to your surgery. YOu should check your blood sugar and magnesium and see neurologist if symptoms persist.
