I had a microdisectomy/laminectomy in April 2025 on L5/S1 due to ruptured disc. This alleviated the excruciating pain shooting down my leg when I sat, stood or laid on my right side. However, I still have pain in my low back that runs down to the middle back of thigh. The pain doesn’t always follow the same path either. I have completed 25 PT visits which helped with regaining strength but not the pain. The more I move, bend, or sit, the worse the pain. I am researching alternative therapies or possible trigger point injections. Recent MRI doesn't show anything got worse. The Spine doctor and Neurologist think it is the sciatica nerve. I would love to hear if others have found improvement for this type of pain.
