Nerve pain following hip replacement

I am curious as to why she had epidurals injected into her lower back at least 8 times over the course of 14 years. Was it for the femur nerve issue?
That is good news that after 14 years she has little or no pain. I believe over years to come the femur nerve pain will gradually improve - I hope, then only numbness.

@mackad2024 No! The epidurals were provided so they could preform hip surgeries and/ or aspersions of fluids a few different times! She just seems to have the numbness in the hip area; lameness and pain is in her lower back area. She has received pain treatment from the spine institute with little success. There was talk of back surgery and my wife declined any further discussion on the matter because she doesn’t want to take any more chances of limiting her mobility any more then it already is limited.
