Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a nerve issue that has started a year after right hip revision surgery 11/8/2016. It is a burning pain that wraps around the hip and down the inside of the thigh. Also wraps around rt side of l4-l5. Pain is brought on by exercise/walking. Sitting minimizes pain. I have had injections and pt with no relief. My average pain is an 8 daily. Today is a 10. Please advise as I need to find some quality of life. Also, I had an ischemic stroke in 2015 and walking and exercise was part of my rehab since the stroke. Thank you Jim
