Had L4,5,S 1 fusion little over a year. Now I have a freakish spur on the other side of the fusion going into the nerve. Wasn't.there before? Has anybody else had this develop after their fusion? Especially with bone growth grafs and stimulator belt?

From what I understand, these bone spurs can appear at any time. They are "outgrowths" of the bone. '
Physical therapy might help, but you'll have to talk to your doctor about this. You have to be careful since you've had fusion. God bless & take care. Hugs, Lee
