Hello doctors,
I had a spine surgery called microdiscectomy in L4-L5 on 21st jan 2026. Before surgery the pain was more in the left side and middle of lower back.. after surgery now the pain has started from right hip and travels down to the leg sometimes... there's a constant but mild pain on right side of my lower back.
How can I this be treated?.. please help

Post surgery opposite side pain is rare. Should get examined for exact level of compression if anything present. Can try T. Pregabalin 75mg. If still persists get examined and proceed further
