 [ Symptoms ] around back had lower lumbar surgery l3 l5 to releve pressure on nerver did not help any ideas  this page is a joke tells me i havr 47 characters left but when i post says i have used to many and wont let me  [ Disease ] i am sorry you are still experiencing pain after your back surgery that is certainly not the desired outcome i am also sorry you had trouble with the answers interface it does appear that your question posted just fine regarding your back i would suggest you return to your surgeon for advice depending on how long ago you had the surgery this pain you feel may be normal when a nerve is decompressed at the spinal root it literally can take months for that nerve to go through a cycle of waking up  getting angry painful and then settling back down so please do not give up on the surgery too quickly in the meantime you might ask your doctor about physical therapy to help with the pain frequently back surgery can cause the muscles to tighten up andor spasm sometimes physical therapy can help relax these muscles and relieve the pain i hope you feel better soon
