It can take a quite a while, up to a year or so, for your injured spine to heal and then settle on what feelings, movements, or whatever you are going to have left in your arsenal. I know that's not the best of metaphors but...Any way, there are many different "phantom" pains and real ones that will subside and there may be others headed your way. Are your feet literally cold or do they just "feel" cold? If they are really cold it could be a circulation problem which you should discuss with your doc.

You can get all types of weird feelings in your legs. Generally I think it is just nerve pain. They seem to come and go.
