I have severe pain in the backs of both legs after liposuction. Gradually worsening, I'm bent over when I walk. What is wrong?

I felt it the next day, but it was bearable. It has gradually gotten worse, now runs down both legs to my heels and has me bent over when I walk. Repeated trips to a chiropractor has not helped at all. Does anyone know what could possibly be wrong?
