Sir My mother has undergone a surgery for L5 or L6 two yrs back as she was suffering from lower back pain and numbness in the lower body parts. Now due to reoccurrence of pain, MRI shows dat she has swelling in that operated part. She has been suggested to get epidural injections after which pain is increasing in lower back along with one leg.
