I think I may have nerve damage after thigh liposuction but unsure. How can I tell?

I had saddlebag lipo about two years ago. Shortly after recovery when I began my running routine I notice a pain in my R Hamstring. It worsened the longer I ran. Went to DR who recco'd PT due to tight IT Band. I have pain all day that fluctuates in strength. I stretch, use rollers, balls but still have pain. Pain range from stabbing to throb. Starting to affect my sleep as the throbbing makes me want to move. I think DR hit nerve during surgery as pain centralized to incision. Scar tissue?
