History : I have had surgery on my sciatic nerve and a fibrous was removed from inside the nerve. I had severe pain in the nerve before the surgery that was done in October 2013, however I still have the same severe pain, and I am wondering if this will be permanent. Question : What could severe pain in sciatic nerve even after surgery and removal of fibrous from inside the nerve indicate? Opinion : Pain can persist for up to six months during the recovery periodic the pain persists beyond that, we need to rule out formation of another lesion.
