Hi, welcome to our site. I am Dr Saumya Mittal.

Read your query. That is a very significant question and i appreciate your problem. I will try my best to answer your query

I think you should be more patient. There will be some pain as the post op surgical wound heals. It is obvious to have some pain during the phase after some pain

Alternatively you can have some exercises to strengthen the muscles. However since you have had surgery, I would suggest you talk to the surgeon first.

Try the conventional pain killers, temporarily.

A repeat MRI may be done

I hope this helps you. Inform the reports mentioned above so i can be of help further. Best of luck.

I have given you the answer to the maximum considering the information provided. The results of the tests could further enhance my answer to you.

Please do understand that some details could be extracted from a detailed history and examination.

Looking forward to your return query with the details asked so that I can help you further.
