Hi,

It’s all related to your spine problem and due to nerve impingement. Consult your neurologist and get an MRI scan for further assessment.

You can take analgesics like Gabapentin which is quite effective in neuropathic pain as in this case.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
