German term

Extraktionsschmerz

German to English Medical Medical (general) Orthopedics
In a German medical report, patient has pain in cervical and lumbar spine:

"Kein Foramenverschlussschmerz oder Kompressions-/Extraktionsschmerz".

I know "Kompressionsschmerz" would be "compression pain" and there is a lot on the internet on that, but what would "Extraktionsschmerz" be in English? I don't find much on "extraction pain" except for pulling out a tooth!

Thanks,

Stephen
