Guest guest Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 It's a variation on sciatica, with pain in the nerves running through the adductor muscles in the inner thighs. Sometimes super bad, sometimes " not so much " but always unpleasant. Question remains how much is back, and how much is possibly from bone spurs on the hips. It's not as bad as it was before surgery though. I do need to find a PT who is skilled with spinal issues though, since my own inclination is to work on rebuilding core muscles. however, with no disk left between L4-L5, and spondolysthesis there as well, I have to be careful. Spine is presently stable and I'd sure like to keep it that way. In a message dated 7/7/2010 8:54:50 A.M. Eastern Daylight Time, ellijaygal@... writes: I hope the TENS belt helps some!
