Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The constant pain even after the surgery can be due to nerve compression or lysthesis post fusion.
There is possibility of discitis also, which can be confirmed by MRI with contrast or CT myelogram
For these symptoms analgesic and neurotropic medication can be started. You need to consult your neurosurgeon and pain specialist.
I hope this answers your query.
