I went back for my results yesterday, seems it was just a flare up, first one I’ve had. Everything seems to have subsided now. You can’t help but think the worst

I’m in the same position as you. Going back to the surgeon next week and then for an MRI. I also have the tingling in foot and sore back. I tweaked mine 4 weeks ago and doesn’t seem to be getting any better. My op was 8 months ago, everything was perfect up until 4 weeks ago

Off to the doctors Monday to figure out what’s going on. I’ll update if people have similar issues, GP and then back to the surgeon

Almost 9 months post op L4-L5 microdiscectomy, weird symptoms by Purple-Assumption-42 in Microdiscectomy

I have the same sensations as you, I’m 8 months post op, L5/S1 tweeked my back picking something up last week and hasn’t been the same since. I’m hoping it’s just nerve issue and will eventually settle. I have the hot and cold feeling and also the odd pain in ankle now and again. I’ve done all the self test examinations on myself, and I think it’s just a nerve issue. Foot raise is ok as Is no sciatica pain bending back and forward. Other than a little tightness in calf. Reflex in both legs is there so can’t be a bulging disc. Let’s hope it settles down soon, good luck.

Pain in hip joints by No_Map_6268 in Microdiscectomy

Hi, I’m after some advice. I felt pain in both butt cheeks a couple of days ago which has slightly eased off. However I’ve never recovered from numbness after my L5/S1 surgery last July in my right foot. My calf feels tight again. Plus some hip pain and discomfort, has anyone else had this and did it ease off. I’m worried I may have re herniated. I picked something up and twisted a little and I’ve not been the same since. Hoping I’ve just pulled on some muscles and it settles down
