Post-Spine Surgery Care at Home| Healkin
After spine surgery, Healkin emphasizes stabilizing the spine and slowly rebuilding strength. Key elements of recovery of post spine surgery care include: Activity Restrictions: Do not bend, lift more than 5-10 pounds, or twist your body. Use logrolling to get in and out of bed safely to protect your spine.
Supportive Gear: Wear lumbar braces or collars as directed. Sleep on a firm mattress with the right pillow support to help healing.
Wound and Pain Care: Keep the incision area clean and dry. Stick to your medication schedule and use over-the-counter pain relief if needed for breakthrough pain.
