Pain after TLIF Surgery
Hi,
My father underwent TLIF surgery on 8th June this year. He had severe right leg pain before operation. When we got it diagnosed, the reason was pars interarticulars defect with extruded disc at L4-L5 and L5-S. After the operation the right leg has no pain whatsoever, but he has pain in left leg now. Under painkiller medications the pain subsides, now that the painkillers have been stopped he is getting the pain back and the pain is pretty consistent. Please let me know how to go ahead with this? When we told the same thing to the hospital, they got done with Xray and Doppler tests for the left leg but both the test results were negative.
Any suggestions and guidance will be helpful 🙏
