yes, I woke up from surgery with a feeling like a screwdriver was stuck in my foot. It finally dissipated after a couple years. Weather makes it worse. No one paid attention to it. (doctors). After 5 years its pretty resolved but replaced by severe outside shin burning. My sacral joint hurts, my outer hip. I go for MFR and the pain completely goes away. And when I get an injection in my butt with NSAID. I am coming to the conclusion that only physical exercise/stretches will keep the nerve pain at bay. whether it is chair, yoga, stretching in the doorway and stretching out my lumbar piriformis. I use a lot of topicals like muscle rubs, diclofenac 3%, lidocaine 5% and more. I'm looking at another lumbar surgery but beginning to think its a dysfunctional piriformis disorder for 25 years which gets ignored and under dealt with. If it is, then good news is no surgery but bad news is the only REAL remedy will be stretching it out and periodically using a strong anti inflammatory. Yes, scar tissue needs MFR but you will have to wait until you are further along. A lot of healing - nerve healing takes 1 -4 years. Still changes for me in year 6!
