[|Human|] After my kidney transplant, I noticed a uncomfortable feeling in my right leg, just below where I had my kidney transplant cut...this feeling of discomfort, numbness and a feeling of my muscle contracting have been giving me sleepness nights. I have been told to drink Gatorade for electrolytes, but the only thing that seem to help is when the physical therapist, stretches and massage my legs that only help for a few hours...I spoke to my Doctor who only advise me that this is a nerve problem that could last for at least a year, I just need to know what to do, so can get some needed rest....Thanks in Advance for your help....
[|AI|]  Dear madam/ sir, welcome to Chat Doctor. First congratulations on having a kidney transplant (hopefully a successful one)! Not many people who reach end stage kidney disease are lucky enough to have a transplant. I presume the new kidney as been placed in the Iliad fossa which is standard practice. It is quite possible that you might have had a slight injury to a nerve during the operation which is causing this localized symptom. Kindly make sure that your Potassium, Calcium, Magnesium and Phosphate are in the right concentration first (by doing a blood check). If your electrolytes are in normal range, you need to see a neurologist and/or an expert in pain who can assess you first before advising you the right treatment. Best wishes.
