Excruciating Pain After Spine Surgery, Sever While Standing Or Walking. MRI Done, Normal Results. Underlying Cause?
My son had (supposedly non-invasive spine surgery I August of this year and has been in excruciating pain ever since. Th surgeon that performed the surgery claims it was successful and has no answer for the pain. He has taken the usual MRI's and nothing shows up. He has gone for pain management injections to no avail. While siting the pain is livable - but the minute has to stand or walk - excruciating .He is worn to a frazzle - difficult to sleep. Can you help me? Mrs. Florence Joffe

Hi, Mrs Florence Joffe, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe it appears to be the pressure symptom on the nerves, due to the disc. Convalance may have some pain, but never so long.
Physiotherapy may prove use full. so i advise you to consult a physiotherapist.
I usually to my patient with such symptoms prescribe neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days, ofloxacin, and anti inflamataries.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
