A member asked:
How long should a man wait to have sex after an l5-s1 microdiscectomy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Discectomy: The neurosurgeon or operating surgeon is best qualified to answer this question as he/she knows the exact extent of dissection and the postoperative condition of the tissues at the operative site. As you know, some sexual intercourse positions create more strain on the lower back than others.
