Why Does My Leg Become Cold After The Therapy?

Had knee arthroscopy and excision of medial plica 2 weeks ago. Just started PT four days ago and am finding that in the evening when resting, both in sitting and laying down positions, the leg gets cold from the knee down. There is no swelling or pain in the calf or foot. It is just cold. Could this be from the movements involved in the therapy?

Spine Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

This has nothing to do with surgery or therapy. You start using crepe bandage and see if things improve.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
