What could be causing incision pain over 1 year post op?

Polite3981
Hello! Had ETT with MR 4/15/22. My left side of my incision constantly hurts in a small area. Ive been on to see my ps because I swear I thought I had opened internally in that spot. He doesn't think so and gave me a shot in my incision at that area of steroid and nerve block in which I almost came off the table screaming in pain. He said that its a nerve or its scar tissue the nerve is stuck in/around. What else could it be?!! Does this sound accurate of what Im experiencing? Im so over it
