Relief of leg pain was faster for patients assigned to early surgery (p < 0.001). Patients assigned to early surgery also reported a faster rate of perceived recovery (hazard ratio, 1.97; 95 % confidence interval [CI]: 1.72 to 2.22; p < 0.001). In both groups, however, the probability...
Fusion takes time. Follow the "BLT" of spine surgery recovery by limiting your bending, lifting and twisting for 2 to 3 months. Work modifications may be necessary. Recurrences of pain are common. The key to avoiding recurrence is prevention: Proper lifting techniques Goodpostureduring sitting, ...
