Relief for Failed Surgery Syndrome in the DFW Metroplex Area
What is Failed Back Surgery Syndrome?
If you have attempted to cure your back pain with surgeries only to have the pain return a few months later, this is what we in the medical field consider Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS). Not only could there be persistent pain in the same spot on your back, but it could also a new pain altogether in the back. Many things can lead to the return of the pain, and it doesn’t necessarily mean there was an issue with the procedure itself. Issues like scar tissue forming on the spinal nerves or improper physical therapy can lead to the pain in your back returning unexpectedly.

This is also why it is very important to schedule checkups after we finish the procedure to ensure everything is healing correctly. If you have received treatments for your back pain and the symptoms return, please schedule a call with our team today.
