How Can Pain In The Groin Area Be Treated?

Hi hi my name is Lew,I had a fusion on L5 & S1.Prior to the surgery I had pain in my back and in my groin, it s been almost 6 weeks the back pain is almost gone but the pain in my groin on the right is still there and I feel it could even be worse. I was told it could be from the hip. I had my hips checked by 2 hip specialist and they both said it s not coming from the hips. I am taking painkillers and there is no relief. Could you tell me where I can go from here what is my next move? Thank you
