Answers:
I had L5-S1 fusion 12 years ago and still have pain from it. Usually it takes about 6 months to get back to close to normal.
definately a question for your surgeon.
it took me 3 months, but the bad news is your now in the back pain for life club, sorry?
Fully recover from spinal surgery ? Never. My neighbour feel pain everytime, every move. After spinal surgery.
That's why when my sister suffer from compression fracture L4-L5, her doctor not suggest her to take operative procedure. She must bed rest for 6 month. She's OK now.
I get this 4 u :
An accurate and complete examination is vital in determining the neurologic level, and therefore, establishing realistic rehabilitation goals. In persons with a complete injury, goals can usually be established on the day of the initial examination, since only about three percent of these patients later have recovery to an incomplete injury with minimal sparing. In persons with an incomplete injury, recovery is often much more difficult to predict. The person with any preserved motor movement often has fairly good prognosis. It is important that every patient have an examination of the sacral areas for sensation, since preservation of sensation may be the only evidence of an incomplete injury and this can change the outlook for recovery. In the patient with sensory sparing only, some rather dramatic recovery may take place about 1-2 months after injury, or very little recovery may occur.
Recovery from spinal cord injury is, therefore, fairly predictable. Persons with a complete injury by neurologic examination generally are not expected to make any significant recovery except some improvement in motor strength in the zone of injury. Recovery for persons with an incomplete injury is less predictable and most recovery occurs within the first six months; however, some additional neurologic recovery may take place up to 18 months after injury. In a patient with a cauda equina injury, some recovery is possible through regeneration for up to three years following spinal cord injury since it is a peripheral nerve type of injury.
