Hi,
The pain is due to nerve involvement secondary to spinal stroke.
Epidural pain pump will be the best option for you.
If you cannot tolerate pain pump, you can consider drugs like Oxycodone or Hydrocodone.
Consult a neurologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
