Thanks for your query and Welcome to Healthcare magic. I am Dr Akshay from Fortis Hospital, New Delhi. You have had multiple surgeries previously for your lower back region but it appears that your symptoms are still persisting. For me to actually advise on what needs to be done in your case :
- I need a detailed neurological examination - MRI LS spine - X Ray LS Spine - Lateral ( Flexion and Extension views)
Also kindly tell me your associated co morbid conditions , drug allergies etc.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further assistance. You can also discuss your case and treatment plans with me in a greater detail in a private consultation.
