Post-operative Back Pain
Back surgery is a serious matter, and the process of healing requires rehabilitation and gradually increasing exercise under the supervision of qualified health professionals. As part of a comprehensive rehabilitation and exercise program, you will probably be learning new habits to support your long term well being: proper posture while sitting and standing, how to lift, bend and do everyday tasks correctly.
You may be advised to use special pillows to help keep you spine correctly aligned, back belts to give your lumbar spine proper support, and lumbar support cushions to use in your car and chairs at home, shoulder bags and backpacks that properly distribute weight, etc. All these "tools" are designed to help you maintain your hard-won progress toward a healthy back.
