Hi,
From the presenting complains and the history,it is a possibility to have injury to nerve roots causing weakness and inability to stand .
please discuss with your surgeon and take treatment .
physiotherapy and massaging to be continued .
recovery may be expected with time and continued treatment
Hope you recover soon .
