Hello – I was given your name by a friend. Our 15 year old daughter had ACLand MCL surgery on June 8th. During this procedure, the surgeon nicked theparoneal nerve. She has had a recent surgery on August 7th and Mayo toattempt to repair the nerve. This surgeon was able to remove the badsection of nerve and reconnect. My question is, do you feel any supplementsor vitamins would be beneficial to help with the nerve? At this time shecontinues to deal with foot drop. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
