What Causes Lower Back Pain And Numbness In The Feet After A Spinal Stenosis Surgery?

I have lower back pain along with pain in my legs and numbness in my feet. The longer I m on my feet the weaker my legs get, numbness increases and the pain becomes unbearable. I have had surgery for spinal stenosis (lumbar decompression) which didn t help. I ve done physical therapy and pain management to no avail.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is the pre-exiting spinal disease condition and it is gone through surgery then the present complaint could be due to spinal stenosis only and it needs to be rule out for that and for that better to get done the MRI till then Tab Ibuprofen can be used hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
