What Is Persistent Post-Surgical Pain, and When Should You Be Concerned?
PPSP is typically defined as pain that continues for more than three months after surgery. However, you don’t need to wait that long to recognize a problem. If your pain is not improving daily, interfering with your mobility, or preventing you from doing rehab exercises, it may be time to take a closer look.
In many cases, the source of post-surgical pain is not just the visible incision but deeper scar tissue or even an older, seemingly unrelated injury. Scar tissue can affect how your fascia, nerves, and muscles move together, creating hidden tension or alignment issues that radiate pain to nearby or distant body areas.
The Personalized Body Map and Myofascial Assessment: Getting the Full Picture
Dr. Nahas begins with the Personalized BodyMap to understand where post-surgical pain originates. This digital tool allows patients to outline their full health history, including the most recent surgery and old injuries, scars, and areas of chronic pain or inflammation.
Next comes a full-body assessment of the myofascial chain, an interconnected web of muscles, fascia, and tissue extending from the fingers and toes to the torso and cranium. Patients are asked to contract muscles in the affected area while Dr. Nahas evaluates movement patterns, restrictions, and tension points. This helps identify where scar tissue or sensitized nerves may pull on surrounding structures, disrupting normal alignment and contributing to ongoing discomfort.
