A member asked:
What pain medication other than oxycontin would you reccommend for post disc replacement and rod insertion surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It sounds like you : Need a detailed evaluation as to why there is persistent pain after your surgery or surgeries. The type and mix of medication is dependent on your age, health, diagnosis and previous experience with various medications. You need to see a pain management specialist if your surgeon has nothing further to offer or get a second opinion.
