I think the remaining sensations are because your nerves might not be healthy. You may be having vitamin b12 and d deficiencies

Hello
The intensity of the persisting symptoms depends on the level of disc compression on the cord.
So sometimes pain reduces but symptoms like what you mention do remain.
Continue the medication as prescribed.
Next Steps
Beware the sciatica sometimes can also reoccur
Health Tips
Kindly beware not to lift weights or perform strenuous activities
