Hello,
You should see a neurologist, it's possible that a medication like gabapentin might help with some of the pain. If you are not already in physical therapy, that would be beneficial too.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Racheal Wolfson, Neurologist, Surgical
