i just had my 5th spinal fusion pain right now is all muscle related please advise?
hi what you are doing is absolutely ok. its not necessary to wear the collar at night unless you have a habit of sleeping in a awkward position. its ok if u feel tired. this usually happens in post operative period and taking calcium and vitamin supplements will help u get out of this tiredness. brisk walking is not recommended at this stage. only ambulating for activities of daily living within the house is recommended. rest for atleast 6-8 hours in the day will be fine for now. i do not recommend you to push through for atleast 2 more weeks. thanks
