Lumber Surgery Microdiscectomy and Facing Problem Respected, I had Microdiscectomy L5-S1 suffering from pain left leg (slip disc) last 1 year. After 12 days of surgery still feel tingling in last 2 finger of the foot of left leg. Feel pain in right leg after surgery from hip to knee and thighs which was not there before surgery. My Dr. Said tingling will take 1 to 2 months and right leg pain will also go accordingly. But I am in confusion this really happens or Dr. is fooling me around. Lastly tell me for how much time I can sit and walk. I will appreciate that if the reply come from Dr. who is spine surgeon, neuro surgeon or neuro physicians. Or The people who faced the same problem and recovered from it. Please instruct me the further action.
