What Do Itching And Pain In The Legs Indicate After A Spine Surgery?

Nothing worrisome.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
The CRP and ESR are almost normal and are not worrisome. This mild rise can be incidental. It does not suggest any active illness. The mild pain in the legs can be related to mild nerve root compression due to degenerative changes in the spine. The main treatment of such problem is bed rest along with pain killers and muscle relaxants. Muscle relaxants can help with her symptoms if used in appropriate dosage in combination with a potent analgesic. You can get these prescribed from her orthopedician.
Local analgesic gels and hot fomentation may provide a short term relief. She can use analgesic gels like Volini gel. Exercise is not advisable in the times of acute pain.
I hope this answers your query.

Wishing you good health.
Regards.
