Your Spine’s Best Friend: Why Movement Matters Every Day
Life after Spinal Surgery
Avoid sudden movements, bending, or twisting your spine. Use proper techniques to get out of bed, and follow strictly the advice regarding walking and wearing a brace as recommended.
Lifting should be limited to light objects, typically no more than 5 kilograms, during the initial recovery phase. Gradually increase lifting capacity as advised during follow-ups, based on your progress and strength. Its essential to gradually build the core strength along with regular exercises to increase the weight lifting capacity.
While spine surgery can effectively alleviate pain and improve mobility, the overall success often depends on post-operative care and lifestyle changes. Adhering to the advice concerning do's and dont's, engaging in recommended exercises, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle are key to achieving long-term results.
Maintaining a healthy weight, practicing good posture, avoiding smoking, and staying active with doctor-recommended exercises are essential for preventing future spine issues. Additionally, regular follow-ups and listening to your body can help address concerns early and maintain spine health.
Mild discomfort or pain is normal during the recovery period and typically improves over time. However, persistent, severe, or worsening pain should be promptly reported for further evaluation.
In the long term, most patients can resume normal activities without major restrictions. However, it's advised to avoid heavy lifting, high-impact activities, and prolonged sitting for extended periods, especially during the first few months. Regular exercises and maintaining proper posture can help prevent future issues.
The timeline for returning to work depends on the nature of your job. For desk jobs or roles involving minimal physical activity, most patients can resume work within 1–2 weeks. For physically demanding jobs, the recovery period may be longer, and it's essential to follow the advice during follow-up consultations.
Most patients are mobilized the same day after surgery, which significantly reduces the need for prolonged physical therapy. However, specific exercises or therapy are crucial to ensure optimal recovery. Spinal surgeries correct structural issues, but rebuilding muscular strength remains essential, emphasising the importance of tailored physical therapy and consistent exercise.
Light activities can typically be resumed within a days, with most patients returning to their routine within two weeks. Strenuous activities, however, should only be undertaken after first consultation after the surgery.
Recovery varies, but most patients start feeling better the same day in the evening and are encouraged to walk. Those who don’t walk the same day are ensured that they walk the next day! With such quick recovery, the confidence builds up and they can get back to their routine life in a maximum of 2 weeks.
