Hello,
I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a pinched nerve, probably due to the injury.
For this reason, I would recommend performing nerve conduction studies and a lumbar spine MRI study.
In the meantime, I would recommend starting Gabapentin or Pregabalin for the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
