Failed Back Surgery Syndome in Monroeville
From a constant, dull ache to a stabbing or shooting sensation, back pain can show up out of nowhere. It can be annoying, and other times it is unbearable and can lead to back surgery. Back pain hurts more than your body – it affects your daily activities or just your ability to sit at your desk to work comfortably. No one wants to or should have to deal with this discomfort.
What Can Cause Failed Back Surgery Syndome?
When it comes to back surgery, it can cause an entirely different type of pain. Failed Back Surgery Syndrome is a condition that patients suffer following spinal surgery for back or leg pain. As the name suggests, this condition tends to arise when surgery fails, and the patient is left dealing with the original pain.
This condition is not caused by unpredictable difficulties during surgery or when the surgery does not work. It refers to the continued pain that patients experience following surgery, even though the surgery was supposed to alleviate the pain. In many cases, chances of continued pain after surgery increase when the same area of the back receives multiple surgeries performed.
How Can Our physicians Help With Failed Back Surgery Syndome?
Assessing pain is one of the most challenging things to do for doctors because it’s dependant on communication. Establishing a dialogue about pain between the patient and doctor can be a little challenging based on the amount of information to obtain in a short amount of time. When it comes to this condition, the buildup of scar tissue around the spinal nerve roots and muscle spasms may be the most significant cause of the pain. The pain may continue after surgery and the scar tissue compresses a spinal nerve.

What Our Patients Are Saying
Read our patients share their experiences and find out why we are the top-rated neuropathy relief center in the Monroeville area.
I have been to many chiropractors over the years, but Dr Shultz has techniques I have never experienced. I have neuropathy from cancer treatment that causes numbness in my legs and feet. I have extreme weakness that causes falls, and makes climbing stairs difficult. Since I’ve started treatment I have started noticing the feeling coming back in my feet, and my ability to walk has become easier. I still have a long way to go, but I’m confident that this treatment is effective. The staff is also top notch, and makes it a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
I have been going to see Dr Schultz at Pittsburgh East Health Center for several months now, and I have received Excellent Care. Everyone Is Friendly and Pleasant . I Would Highly Recommend Pittsburgh East Health Center.
