If you are talking about the numbness in and around your knee replacement, please do not worry as it is not a major problem or complication.

Also if you are suffering from Back pain following your knee replacement surgery and thinking it as a nerve damage doing some physical therapy will help you with that.

What is the difference between foot drop due to sciatic nerve injury and common peroneal nerve injury?

no difference except for the sensory supply. if you damage your sciatic nerve, the sensory and muscle supply above the knee also lost as the sciatic nerve is damage. This is because common peroneal nerve is the brach of sciatic and it is at level of your knee. Only muscle and sensory below the knee level will be affected if you damage the common peroneal nerve.

What will knee liposuction do to the cartilage between the joints in my knee?

Liposuction on the knees is a procedure that can cause problems if the doctor isn't a highly accredited professional. I believe that if the surgery isn't performed properly that it can cause cartilage damage in the knee joints. Not only is this a risk, but nerve damage and fluid accumulation or fluid loss can also cause serious health problems.
