In my experience the best results often come from consistent acupuncture treatments - possibly once weekly for many months and then maybe monthly after that depending on how things go. It is generally ideal to start the acupuncture as soon as possible after surgery (which, as you are finding, will see the issues returning, and at times even worse).

There are a host of herbal formulas that could potentially be used, but they ideally need to be tailored to you by a practitioner in your local area (ideally your acupuncturist). Formulas are not a fixed thing and often need to change as your condition improves or if improvement remains stagnant for awhile. With Chinese Medicine you are generally trying to resolve the deeper causal factors rather than choosing things based on symptoms - see “how to choose a formula” for more on that.
