Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, pain pump is good option for chronic pain not subsided by surgery and oral painkillers. This kind of pump releases medicines at regular interval. So you can achieve better pain relief. So you should definitely talk about this option with your doctor.

Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
