The complexity of spine procedures, coupled with patient variability, necessitates a multifaceted approach to pain control. Over time, numerous strategies have emerged, each with varying levels of effectiveness. Pharmacological approaches, including multimodal analgesia, local anesthetic infusions, and gabapentinoids, provide relief for both acute and chronic pain. Additionally, perioperative strategies such as enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocols have demonstrated benefits in optimizing pain control and recovery outcomes. Beyond pharmacological interventions, physical therapy has become a cornerstone of postoperative pain management, aiding in functional recovery and reducing reliance on medications. For patients with refractory or chronic pain, neuromodulatory techniques such as spinal cord stimulation and intrathecal injections offer alternative solutions. Despite the breadth of evidence-based strategies available, limitations persist, including opioid dependence, the complexity of multimodal regimens leading to suboptimal compliance, and cases of refractory pain. These challenges underscore the importance of tailoring pain management approaches to individual patient needs, ensuring a balance between effectiveness and safety.
