Hi, I Am A Female, 32, I Have A Stent

Hi, I am a female, 32, I have a stent on my iliac vein due to dvt caused by may Thurner syndrome, the vascular surgeon said the stent is around my back. One month after my stent was placed I started having lower back, glute, hip and leg pain in specific areas. The vascular physician said pain was not related to dvt/stent. The neurologist said my symptoms are due to a very minor bulge on L4/L5. I however have a feeling my stent is irritating or compressing my nerve? Is this possible? I am going to the physical therapist and I have a lot of pain when he compresses near my low back toward my left hip.
