A spinal cord stimulator (SCS) is an advanced therapy used to help manage chronic pain by delivering mild electrical signals to the nerves, changing the way pain signals are processed before they reach the brain. SCS may be an option for patients with conditions such as chronic back or leg pain, post-laminectomy syndrome, failed back surgery syndrome, complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS), peripheral neuropathic pain, and certain cases of radicular pain that have not responded well to more conservative treatment.
The goal is not just to reduce pain, but to help improve function, sleep, activity level, and overall quality of life. Every patient is different, which is why a thorough evaluation is so important. If you have been living with chronic pain and wondering whether a spinal cord stimulator could be an option for you, Dr. LeDoux can help determine whether this treatment may fit your diagnosis, symptoms, and goals.
