Purpose: In patients with Persistan spinal pain syndrome type 2 (PSPS-T2) it is to study the pain and functional effects of intradermal local anesthesia (LA) injections, which are applied in addition to the Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation (FTR) program. Tools and Methods: Our prospective randomized and single-blind study took a total of 80 patients between the ages of 18 and 75 and was randomized into 2 groups. In the first group, the FTR program, in the second group, the FTR program, in addition to the 3 session, the intradermal LA injection was performed in a way that surrounds the operating scratch and the painful areas. Patients were evaluated with pain in the visual analog scale (VAS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and finger floor distance before treatment, after treatment and 1 month after treatment. Results: In both groups, a significant decline in VAS and ODI values was observed, and this decline continued in the controls 1 month later. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups after treatment. In both groups, there was no statistically significant change in the HADS score and the finger floor distance (p>0,05). The result: Our study found that the FTR program in PSPS-T2 improved the pain and functionality, and that the injections of intradermal local anesthesia that were applied in addition did not provide any additional contribution.
