I had surgery on my back in 2009 by a nureosurgeon, i had a birth defect that got worse the older i got. my question is this, i am having pain again in the exact same spot that i had surgery on. what can be done?

It has to do with the reason for the pain and imaging is always needed. Surgery may or may not be needed, physical therapy helps usually by increasing muscle tone.
