Chiropractor

So my hips/right leg have been bothering me off and on since after my surgery. Probably just from sitting a lot and not moving around as much. I’m now 6 weeks post op. The past two days I’ve been having pain down my hip and right leg. I’m thinking sciatica but not sure. My question is has anyone gone to the chiropractor since their surgery and is it even allowed? Is there a waiting period? I obviously don’t want to screw anything up but my body just feels out of wack.
