Brief Answer:
More information is necessary.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.

I have read your query and understand your concerns.

Pain is not typical after low grade glioma surgery, numbness is a common finding, but is related to area of the brain or spinal cord that has been involved.

There is necessity for more information about your condition such as localization of the glioma, imaging studies ( MRI ) reports before and after the surgery, a description of the symptoms before the surgery, localization of pain and numbness, in order to understand your condition better.

Awaiting for more information
