Failed Back Surgery Syndrome

Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) is a condition that affects a person after a surgical procedure to address pain in the lower back or associated leg pain. It is characterized by persistent postoperative pain and disability, including numbness and weakness which can be debilitating. The cause of FBSS is poorly understood but may be related to surgical technique, nerve damage, or tissue scarring from surgery. Treatment for FBSS includes a combination of medications, physical and occupational therapy, and interventions such as spinal cord stimulation and intrathecal drug delivery. FBSS is an important public health issue as it can significantly impact quality of life and disrupt daily activities. Proper evaluation and treatment of FBSS can help individuals get back to a more normal life.
