Still getting pain but not as much pain prior to the surgery, numbness and tingling on my 3rd, 4th & 5th digits on r foot after laminectomy 3 yrs. ago?

Sometimes removing : The compression on the nerve (s) can most predictably relieve the pain but less predictably allow for the nerve(s) to fully recover their function. You can get a repeat imaging study to assess the adequacy of the decompression or get an EMG (nerve ) test to assess this as well.

Tingling: Tests are indicated to see if there is still nerve entrapment. See the surgeon or a neurologist.
