Default extreem back pain as result of surgery

Hi
I had back surgery in Nov. 30.2006 as a result of a car accident when we were rear ended by a semi-truck on the freeway. Surgery was a right L5 hemilaminectomy. Still have as much pain as before surgery. Nerosurgeon says it is due to scar tissue. MRI shows scar tissue surrounding the right S1 nerve. Anyone know of anything that can help fix my pain?

What type of pain are you having? Nerve pain? Or pain in the area of the surgery?
