I had surgery for a slipped disc at L5-S1 level about 10 months ago but still have persistent pain in my calf and hip. The MRI showed diffuse disc bulge with postero central herniation. Why am I not getting complete relief even after the surgery? Could there be any complications or do I need further treatment?
Persistent pain after a herniated disc surgery can be due to various reasons, including residual nerve compression, scar tissue, or other complications like failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS). Further treatment options might include physical therapy, nerve blocks, or even repeat surgery, depending on the underlying cause and severity of the pain. It's crucial to discuss your ongoing pain with your surgeon to determine the best course of action.
