Up to 40% of lower back surgery fails. There is now even a term for people who fall into this category, Failed Back Surgery Syndrome.

An effective diagnosis of lower back pain should cover the root underlying cause, clearly map out what steps are required to rehabilitate the lower back and then strengthen the body, so the condition never returns.
