Have you tried physical therapy or pain management? Try these and see what happens.

Other than that I really don't know what to tell you. All conservative options should be exhausted before you opt for surgery. That should be your last resort! Surgery won't relieve pain. Surgery is only for mechanical problems.

I wish you the very best. Please take care and God bless. Hugs, Lee
