A member asked:

Ddd spondy l5-s1 severe stenosis herniated discs + abdominal injury any advice on how to correct posture & improve severe hunching?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

How about PT: Well, I know you're in pain with all that you've said..you haven't specified the nature of the abdominal injury so I don't know whether or not you are bedbound right now or able to get up and move about? Is there a plan to surgerize the back with everything there? I wouldn't necessarily unless it's your only option. But as far as posture goes, PT is usually pretty good with helping with that.
