Severe Back Pain. Undergone Abdominal Surgery Years Before. Suggestions?

I am having severe back pain seems to be sciatic nerve. It initially started on the lower right back about six months back and now it has started on the left side as well. Back xray and sonogram shows no remarks. Feel it may be due to adhesion resulting from abdominal surgery about twenty years back, is it possible. If so what's real solution, would lap surgery eliminate the growth of tissues resulting from adhesion and if so what are the odds the treatment surgery itself wouldn;t cause additional adhesion?

Dear friend,

Thanks for posting your query on this website. I fully appreciate your concerns.

Firstly, Sciatica results from compression over the sciatic nerves by bulging spine discs. Your symptoms do not suggest so.

Post-operative adhesions can lead to dull pain later on in life.

It would help me immensely to pinpoint the exact origin of pain and deciding the right course of action. Kindly revert back to me with all details; nature of pain; any other joint pains/swellings; your age and sex; family medical history etc...


I am confident that you will certainly benefit from the advice.

May I assure you that I am always available for your assistance and will try my best to cure your condition to the best of my experience and knowledge.

Please feel free to revert back to me in case of further clarifications, if any.

HAVE A NICE DAY AND A SPEEDY RECOVERY.

Fond Regards,

Dr.(Col) R Karanwal
