I am so sorry for what you are going through. I had a recent surgery and also have pain over surgical area. I hope someone chimes in with helpful advice. Wishing you/us comfort.

Hello. I am not exactly sure what your condition is. I will say this. I had a cage in my lower back. Several years after it was put in, it started to hurt one day. The next night I went to get out of bed and fell to the ground. My legs wouldn't work, It is quite a long story from there but, in short, the hospital that I was taken to gave me sone pills and said go to surgeon. I went there. The pills kept me going, I geuss. The surgeon x-rayed me, said it looked fine and gave me a steroid shot and more pills. A couple days later, I was delirious from pain and I remember very little. My poor wife didn't know what to do . So she put me in her car, took me to a different hospital, where in my delusional state, they believed that something may be wrong and finally, they gave me a cat-scan. I had a major infection going on and I had an emergency surgery that day. The cause? All the scews in that cage were coming loose and were backing out. So, they put in another, bigger cage.
What I'm saying is sometimes Doctors are not thorough. Get checked out
