Hi.
Lower back pain can occur for a while, but gradually subsides. I have although met some women who complain of restricted mobility and pain at times (both lower back and site of surgery) even 5-6 years after surgery. I would speak to your doctor and ask him/her if pain management can be considered in case this pain lasts for longer.
Best wishes.
