Perioral numbness, cramps and carpopedal spasm the day after total thyroidectomy mean symptomatic hypocalcemia from hypoparathyroidism. Acute treatment is IV calcium gluconate (10%, 10 ml). Oral calcium plus vitamin D is for long-term or mild cases, not acute tetany, and iodine or levothyroxine do not correct calcium.
