My doctor thinks I am having sciatic nerve pain but I don t. The pain goes from right under my right butt cheek down to just the back of my knee and it is a very sharp painful ache. All day long. I ve had back surgery a fusion l4 l5 but my back isn t hurting at all.....should I get another opinion of what is really causing my pain? She says to take 1000mg of Tylenol 3x a day for pain but it doesn t help. I ve had stomach issues and I can t take nsaids. I am in a lot of pain working 10 hour days and not sure what else to do.
