Thank you. He did do a posterior decompression. I had a follow up MRI a month after surgery because I had an incisional seroma (now resolved) and it didn’t show any remaining compression.
What I feel in the calf is not painful, but definitely a fluttering (feels like worms under the skin, if that makes sense). I would not call it a cramp. I also have constant tightness in that calf, mostly the lateral calf. Both symptoms (fluttering and tightness/burning) are worse following activity.
