Frustrating!: Back pain can be difficult to treat. Surgery should be seen as the last resort. If you ask most neurosurgeons they would tell you to avoid back surgery unless you absolutely have to! It's hard to give you advice without knowing a bit more but often a holistic approach to treating back pain is more successful. Depending on where you live you could try The Back Institute https://www.tbihealth.co.nz
