HI Danish ! I am Chat Doctor, a general surgeon. It would have been of more help if you could provide me with the reports of investigations done so far including that of an MRI if done. The symptoms of your mother goes more in favor of a prolapsed inter vertebral disc with some amount of pressure to the nerve roots due to which the pain in the left leg is persisting. After discussing with the treating orthopedic surgeons, you can plan for an MRI scan for your mother and its report will decide further course of action. I wish your mother an early recovery.
