How long to comeback in your normal activities like playing softball and jiu jitsu from lumbar microdesectomy of l5 s1?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
L/S Microdesectomy: Prognosis for a one level uncomplicated lumbar spine microdesectomy is very promising and can certainly provide a cure for many. With appropriate post-operative rehabilitation, a patient should be able to return to normal activities withing 2 to 3 months.One should keep in mind that each case is unique & the actual spine surgeon is the best person to ask about recovery.
