Q: Nerve pain with lower back pain

Hi, I am 37 years of age female and I have a question concerning nerve pain. I have had one partial herniated disc removed but not before I had lost half of the feeling in one of my legs. I have since had another massive surgery on my back which enabled me to be mobile. I have several different types of pain, nerve, muscle, and bone. I of course am medicated for the symptoms.

The problem is that although I understand and recognize the results of the nerve pain. I have found that when I am "up", sitting in the only chair my back allows for any length of time I have pain in my feet but its not the normal burning. It feels more like I have bruises on the bottom of my feet when I try to stand or walk. I would appreciate any insight into this type of pain that is occurring in my feet.

Thank you,
Mrscrazyfrog

Hello Mrscrazyfrog,

Welcome to this forum!!!!

Sorry to hear about the pain, especially the nerve issues that you are having.

May I suggest that you go back to your spinal surgeon and get his/her opinion on the nerve issues that you are having with your feet.

THEN seek out the very best spinal surgeon in your area and get the opinion of that doctor. It is always a good idea to get a second opinion.

I wish you the best.

Nerve Pain

I have nerve pain due to post viral syndrome.
I have had this for a little over a year now and have no answers from all the doctors I have seen. I just stumpled upon this and thought that I would share it. Benadryl has helped me so much. I had allergies one day so took a few benadryl and discovered it helped my nerve pain. Dont know if it will have the same effect on any one else but thought I would share!!

Good Luck!!
