Back pain which is going in groin can be due to hip or spine. You have to find out which thing is causing this pain. What is your recent report says. Is there still some nerve compression at back or is there any fluid collection i hip joint or some thing wrong with your groin muscles. According to that we can plan our management. Chances are high that still there is nerve compression due to DISC.Please post your MRI report also in this forum.
