A member asked:
Had a tibial sesmoidectomy about a year ago. have had chronic pain since. my doctor has tried everything possible and nothing has worked. what now?

Pain Specialist: As medicines and surgery have failed, the next steps may be pain medication injections or nerve blocks. The nerves that transmit the pain may also be burned out. I would see a pain management specialist about these and potentially other options.
